Among the three counties that raised troops with Lu Xu, Duchang County can be regarded as the best in terms of both the scale of the city and the number of people. www.biquge.info Compared with the highest city walls such as Pingshou and Xiami, which are only two zhang high, the wall with more than three zhang does seem tall and majestic. Moreover, the population of Duchang is nearly 30,000, which is almost comparable to Jimo. Therefore, even if Cao Kai was anxious to take Duchang and avoid giving Zhao Min another chance to steal chickens, but attacking the fortified city at night would definitely add a lot of unnecessary damage, and for the sake of stabilizing the morale of the army, in the end, the Qingzhou army still had to camp honestly under the city after arriving at Duchang City, and only besieged the city to prevent the thieves from escaping.

Qingzhou Mansion Thorn Shi Cao Kai slept very unsteadily this night, and he didn't know why his eyelids kept jumping, as if something bad was about to happen. Although he has received the news that Zhao Minjun is camped twenty miles away, and there is honestly no movement, it stands to reason that it will not cause any obstacles to his capture of Duchang, but for some reason the shadow in his heart has always lingered. Therefore, when his subordinates came to ask whether to send troops to attack the city the next day, Cao Kai only felt that his eyelids were beating more and more, and even his temples began to ache faintly.

The specific command of the offensive and other military matters naturally do not need to be worried about Lord Shi, and his own professional commanders such as Cao Zhi are responsible, and what Cao Kai has to do is just to give an order to attack, but this simple order made him hesitate to make up his mind. Cao Kai stood in the camp tent, facing the heralds waiting for orders, and he was a little hesitant at this time, who was usually resolute.

This is not a way after all, Cao Kai walked out of the camp tent, came to Yuanmen, and looked up at the head of Duchang City. The distance from the city wall to the camp tent is too far to see the specific situation, but the banner with the word "horse" on the head of the city is still faintly visible, and it looks the same as yesterday, but why is he always restless?

Cao Kai turned his head and asked the soldiers beside him: "Is there any change in the team of the King of the North Sea?" ”

"According to the orders of the adults, our army is full of scouts in the position of the Jimo army, and they report back every moment. Judging from the last report, the Mexican army is still in place twenty miles away. ”

Hearing such a reply, Cao Kai finally settled down a little, and held back the discomfort of the faint pain, after all, tens of thousands of soldiers on his side were already waiting for his order, Cao Kai finally gritted his teeth and waved his hand, and gave the order for a general attack.

After the order was issued, I saw the flag of the Chinese army waving, after a drum sounded, four neat phalanxes were discharged on each side of the siege, with swords and shields in front, bows and crossbows in the back, swords and guns like a forest, and thousands of soldiers slowly pressed towards the gate of Duchang from four directions with neat steps. At the same time, it was attacked from all sides, which showed that the determination of the Qingzhou Army this time was not small, and it was intended to fight and achieve all the successes, and for a while, a pressure of wind and rain was so suppressed that the entire suburbs of Duchang were filled with a heavy smell.

However, what is strange is that in the face of such a fanfare attack by the Qingzhou army, Duchang did not react, and there was not even a single soldier on the head of the city. Although the situation was strange, the military order was like a mountain, and the Qingzhou army could only suppress the doubts in their hearts under the urging of the drums, and approached the city gate step by step in silence.

Just when the Qingzhou army was approaching step by step, only one hundred and fifty steps away from the city wall, an elongated horn was suddenly heard from the city, and the four gates of Duchang City were opened. Seeing this situation, the Qingzhou army invariably stopped, and looked at the open city gate in disbelief. I saw that there were no imaginary fully armed soldiers in the four gates, only a young man in a green shirt walked out of the city gate near the camp of the Qingzhou Chinese army, and slowly greeted the Qingzhou army. But seeing that this young man is weak and has a humble smile on his face, who is not the fourth prince Zhao Min?

This change gave birth to elbows and armpits, which made the Qingzhou army suddenly lose ground and look around blankly. However, Zhao Min was not in a hurry, walked to the front of the Qingzhou army formation, and said loudly with a smile: "Ma Gui, the leader of the Duchang rebels, admires the military might of our court's rebellious army, and has surrendered to our army. ”

As soon as he said that, Zhao Min just stood in place with his hands on his hands, complacent, leaving the Qingzhou army at a loss where to make a mess. The momentum of Ruhong below is completely gone: since the Duchang rebels have surrendered, what else is there to fight in this battle? The generals led by the Qingzhou Army did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly transmitted the news back to the Chinese army on the one hand, and restrained their officers and men to stay where they were, waiting for further orders.

Cao Kai is not blind, he had a bad feeling in his heart at the beginning of the change, and when he saw that it was Zhao Min who came out of the city gate, he only felt that a depressed breath was blocked in his heart, and he couldn't go up or down. When the front-line sergeant sent the content of Zhao Min's shouting, he couldn't bear it anymore and shouted: "Zhao Min'er, it's too much to deceive people!" After shouting, I suddenly felt that my whole body was weak, and I couldn't support it anymore, so I sat down on the ground and couldn't speak for a long time.

Ma Gui obviously surrendered to Zhao Min, but in Zhao Min's mouth, he became a surrender. You must know that surrender and surrender are only one word, but the meaning is very different. Surrender is forced to do it under pressure, and surrender is the act of taking refuge, and the teacher who surrenders is not only not a sinner, but has the merit of rebellion! In this way, instead of punishing Magway, he should be rewarded as a meritorious person. On the other hand, Duchang is a big county, no matter how much money is a small number, it was tampered with by Zhao Min so skillfully, and Qingzhou Mansion no longer has room to meddle, after all, Duchang City is theoretically now the imperial court and belongs to Ma Gui's rule, as a Shangguan, it is always difficult to put his hand into the purse of a meritorious minister?

Thinking that the credit and war gains that should have belonged to him were completely eaten by Zhao Min, so that Qingzhou Mansion, which originally hoped to rely on harvesting Duchang to make up for the deficit in the expedition, gained nothing, how could such a huge psychological gap not make Cao Kai hate Zhao Min's shamelessness?

In stark contrast to Zhao Min, who was still standing in front of the formation. I saw that he looked leisurely, smiling, with his hands in his sleeves, and seemed not to be in a hurry for the other party's reply at all. In fact, Zhao Min is really not in a hurry, the entire Duchang City has been completely won, what are you in a hurry?

And what made him happiest was that last night, after receiving Magway to surrender, when he accidentally entered the system before going to bed, he found that his reputation value had skyrocketed to 400 points! At that time, Zhao Min was stunned for a long time, and even thought that he had made a mistake, and then after thinking about it carefully, Ma Gui's surrender alone can bring a full 100 points of fame, plus the loyalty of Ma Gui's soldiers, as well as the effect of his own restoration of Pingshou and the whole city of Pingshou of the Great Banquet, adding up to 20,000 people, so that the increase of 300 points of fame should be only a little less! Moreover, now because of the new annexation of Duchang, most of the people have not yet felt the benefits of their rule. And to win the allegiance of the people, it is only necessary to make them well-fed and warmly clothed, and they will sincerely support the existing rulers, so that the allegiance of nearly 30,000 people in Duchang is only a matter of time, and at that time there are at least hundreds of prestige points in the account! Thinking of this, Zhao Min couldn't help laughing.

On the other hand, the 'Baptism of War' mission in the system also shows the completed status, and the points for completing the displayed task are 200! If you do the math, a single battle victory in the mission is counted as 50 points, and 200 points is 50×4, and there should be 4 victories, and it seems that the system calculates each war separately. Winning Pingshou is counted as one, the offensive and defensive battle with the rebel city wall is counted as one, Jiang Qin's independent defeat of the rebel division is counted as one, and finally his complete integration of the Duchang armed forces is counted as another! In this way, I will contribute 200 points to myself for this task alone!

Now Zhao Min's points and fame value are exchanged, and the total score has far exceeded 500 points, which fully meets the requirements for summoning a famous general again, that is to say, as long as Zhao Min is willing, he can apply for a settlement task now and summon a third famous general! However, Zhao Min still rationally suppressed this impulse, after all, first, the 'baptism of war' task has not yet reached the end of the time, and the county town of Xiami has not been taken; second, it is a little irresponsible to summon famous generals in a hurry, after all, this is not a state of last resort when he is on the pirate island, in case he is not careful, because he is not thoughtful, he is not the right person to be summoned, not to mention wasting points in vain, and he will also make himself a headache for the placement of personnel, which obviously outweighs the loss. So after weighing it repeatedly, Zhao Min finally gave up this tempting idea.

However, no matter how embarrassing the scene is, it is only an internal problem of the official army, and it is still a family behind closed doors, so for the people in the outside world, this is a victory for the official army after all. Seeing that the main camp of Qingzhou Mansion could not give clear instructions for a long time, the commanders and generals of the Qingzhou Army saw that it was not a matter of such a stalemate, so they hesitated again and again, so they had to order the troops to be collected and returned to the camp, which finally brought this farce to a temporary end.

Zhao Min saw that Qingzhou Mansion had withdrawn its troops, and he had no intention of continuing to pose here, and he didn't want to go to the main camp of Qingzhou Mansion to endure the torture, so he immediately smiled, turned around with his hands behind his back, and walked back to Duchang City step by step.

If Zhao Min doesn't have nothing to do now, he has to quickly summon his team. Although the battle here can't be fought, after all, the only real people in Duchang City are Zhang Han and Chen Zhen, and it's a little early to say that you can sit back and relax. Although they have already seen Magway's attributes, it shows that he has sincerely taken refuge, but after all, with his own team by his side, even if he sleeps, he must be more steady. Fortunately, it was not far away, and at the latest in the afternoon, Duchangcheng could really be surnamed Zhao.

(That...... I'm sorry for all of you, the old horse is going out for a few days, I'm afraid there is only one change in these two days, I hope you will forgive me! ）
