Chapter 65: Take Pingshou lightly

The city wall of Pingshou County is two feet eight feet high, and the overall structure is similar to that of Xiami City, the difference is that the two city gates are opposite to each other, and the other point is that because Pingshou City is far away from the sea, it is not pebbles mixed in the rammed earth, but more irregular shape of mountain stones. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info and the source of the mountain stone is exactly what Zhao Min is very familiar with - Fuyong Mountain.

At this time, it is the time of the fourth watch, people are in the most tired and sleepy time, the whole city is almost all asleep, only the torches of the sentry on duty on the city tower are swaying in the night wind, the figure of the watchtower is projected under the city, which looks quite hideous.

Since following Lu Xu to raise the rebel flag, Pingshou City has implemented martial law, and the city gate is not opened during the day, leaving only a small gate for pedestrians to enter and exit; And at night, there is a city-wide curfew. Thirty miles to the west of Pingshou is the county seat of the drama, and the horse will arrive in one or two hours, so the defense on the west gate is much looser than the other three city walls.

However, on the thoroughfare leading to the west gate of the city, when and where there should never be a pedestrian appearance, an ox cart appeared, accompanied by about eight or nine people, all dressed as country farmers. The group drove straight to the west gate, and when the doorman on duty in the city saw it, he quickly woke up the team in charge. It was not a pleasant thing to be woken up from a dream, I thought that there was an enemy and was a little frightened, but when I saw only a few old Zhuang Hans, I couldn't help but be furious, and scolded on the city tower: "Dogs, don't you know the ban on walking on the street at night?" Dare to disturb grandpa's dream, believe it or not, cut off your dog's head and feed the pig now! ”

An old man who looked like a leading rich man in Zhuang Hanzhong stepped forward and said with a smile: "The soldier is angry, it is not the small one who doesn't know what to do, but the little old mother is seriously ill, and no one takes care of it in the village, and the small one is easy to ask for a doctor, so he ventures out of the city to treat the old mother, and I hope that the military master will be accommodating, and the small one will be grateful!" After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves, revealing that there seemed to be a bulging lump inside.

When the team leader heard the word "heavy thanks", he couldn't help but move in his heart, and then saw that the left and right were all cronies in his team, and couldn't help but take a step forward, leaning out half, and his tone was also softened: "Since you are out of the city to see a doctor, why don't you wait for the day to go again, I prefer this late midnight; Do you know that this is an extraordinary time, compared to normal days, if something goes wrong, you will lose your head! ”

The rich man smiled flatteringly: "The military master is right, but the old mother is seriously ill and can't be delayed; Besides, the small one has a heavy treasure, but where can he meet a reasonable adult like a military master during the day, in case of a bad heart, losing money and wealth, he will lose his life. ”

When the team leader heard the "heavy treasure", a burst of evil light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he blurted out: "What heavy treasure?" ”

The rich man looked left and right, lowered his voice and said, "The military master is better to see for himself!" ”

The team hesitated for a moment, but seeing that the other party was an old man who was nearly forty years old, and it didn't seem to be a threat, he finally couldn't resist the temptation of "heavy treasure", took a few personal soldiers down the city tower, walked to the rich man, and said viciously: "Let me see what kind of heavy treasure it is, if you play a certain family, no wonder grandpa is ruthless to you!" ”

The rich man smiled like a Maitreya Buddha, and while approaching the team leader, he pulled something out of his sleeve, and said with a smile in his mouth: "How dare the little one play with the military master, this heavy treasure is the head of the military master, but is it still valuable?" ”

Before the team leader could react, he saw the man who looked like a rich man take out a short axe from his sleeve and shouted: "Do it!" Seeing a flash of cold light, the team leader only felt a chill in his throat, and a stream of bloody arrows shot out. For a while, he was not dead, but he couldn't say a word, only to cover his throat, which was like a fountain of blood, and stared wide-eyed. I saw that the rich man seemed to suddenly become tall and mighty, and pounced into the soldiers behind him like a tiger descending from a mountain, and the remaining few Zhuang men violently pushed the cart straight to the city gate, and many black-clothed people suddenly appeared in the darkness, holding sharp blades to kill the city wall. Suddenly, the corpse of a soldier fell beside the leader, and the soldier's eyes were facing him. The four eyes were facing each other, and the team leader only felt that his whole body was relaxed, and his memory came to an abrupt end.

Of course, this group of people is the good hand of Si Wensi arranged by Shao Qi, and it is Zhang Hao who looks like a rich man. At this time, Zhang Hao led the team to kill the city tower, and slashed the soldiers guarding the gate like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. Due to the suddenness of the incident, the leader was killed at the first time, and the soldiers fell into a state of complete confusion, some wanted to block the door, some just scattered and fled, and some wanted to give the order to arrows, in short, there was a mess. Zhang Hao went up to the city tower, didn't care about chasing and killing the soldiers who were scattered and fled, and quickly took out the fire fold from his arms to light the torch at the head of the city, held the torch high and waved it, and shouted at the same time: "Second brother, open the city gate quickly!" ”

Zhuang Han, who was pushing the cart under the city, replied in a deep voice: "I know! He rushed to the city gate. There were not a few soldiers in the city gate cave, but at this time, when they saw all the Zhuang men coming towards them viciously, they were all stupid for a while! The big man, known as the second brother, yelled at Bing Ding: "Where is the gate valve of the latch? The soldier's eyes subconsciously looked at the door, and the second brother saw that it was an arm-thick lever, and he pushed it with all his strength at the moment, only to hear a "click", and the huge latch on the city gate fell in response! Then several people worked together to slam the cart into the city gate, and the city gate finally slowly opened under the action of the huge thrust, revealing the weak core.

Outside the city, there were already more than 1,000 soldiers led by Zhao Yun, and when they saw the gate open, some soldiers immediately stepped forward to help push the city gate open, but when they saw Zhao Yun's spear pointing forward, thousands of soldiers rushed into the city gate!

Entering the city, Zhao Yun first arranged: "Zhijie led 300 people to sweep from west to south from the city wall, Gongyi led 300 people to sweep from west to north, and the east city gate converged. Zhongguo led 500 men to stay at the West Gate and wait for the king of the North Sea. The rest of the people followed me from the inner city to the east gate. After speaking, he turned his head and shouted: "Meritorious service will be in this dynasty, and all the soldiers will charge with me!" "Rushing out first, galloping along the avenue.

I have to say that the training level of the soldiers in Pingshou County is indeed not much different from that of the Seven Counties Coalition Army, and the West Gate here has been fighting for a long time, and the defenders are still slow and have not appeared. As we all know, the army that did not form a formation to put out the formation is a group of stragglers, in Zhao Yun, Jiang Qin, Wei Ying led by the fierce generals rushed to kill, in the end did not form any effective resistance, all the way is really like chopping melons and vegetables, what you see is either a small team of stragglers, or a slight touch and collapse, only a quarter of an hour later, the three-way team will successfully meet under the East City Gate!

By the time Zhao Min entered the city, the city had already been settled, the east and west gates had been opened, and the remaining enemy troops in the city had become turtles in the urn, and there were no waves. After arranging for 500 people to guard the east gate, Zhao Yun led the rest of the soldiers to surround the county yatuan. Zhao Min came to the county government and saw that this was an ordinary mansion, and the gate was closed at this time, and he couldn't see what else could be used to prevent the thousands of tigers and wolves under Zhao Yun. Zhao Min sighed and raised his voice: "Where is the longevity of Kong Chen?" Would you like to come out and answer? ”

After waiting for a while, the courtyard door opened with a "squeak", and a middle-aged scribe with a clear appearance came to the door alone, and said in a loud voice: "But the King of the North Sea in person?" The sinners did not dare to be the chief of more than 14,000 people. ”

Zhao Min saw that the county government was so shabby, and expected that this Kong Chen could not only cherish the people, but also not be regarded as a heinous criminal, and said loudly at the moment: "Lu Xu is a traitor, risking the disapproval of the world, raising troops to make chaos, trapping the people in fire and water, and the crime is extremely evil. Now Guanjun is not a vicious person, why follow Lu Yi to find his own death? As long as you surrender, I am willing to not blame the past and keep you from dying. ”

The middle-aged scribe shook his head and said, "Duke Lu treats me like a mountain, even though he knows that he is wrong, he has to go." Kong knew that he was guilty of a lot of sin, and he was ashamed of the people of Pingshou, but he just died. The soldiers are all fighting because of Kong's own selfishness, it is not their original intention, I hope that the king of Beihai will spare him for the sake of all my people in Great Xia! After speaking, he knelt on the ground and bowed to the ground, and made a five-body bow.

Zhao Min sighed, it seems that this Lu Xu's ability to win people's hearts is really good, these two are willing to die for him, if they are not enemies with themselves, they may be regarded as a masterpiece. The Kong Chen in front of him is obviously determined to die, and the ancients are the most important name, and he will be fulfilled. At that moment, he said, "I promise you." ”

Then he saw Kong Tan beckoning to open the courtyard door left and right, put down his blade and rushed out, standing in a line in front of Zhao Minjun. Zhao Min ordered the left and right to bring these soldiers down to be detained, and explained to Zhao Yun: "But if anyone is willing to surrender, there is no need to be embarrassed, and they can be brought together and imprisoned." ”

Seeing Zhao Min's words and having faith, Kong Tan put down his thoughts, suddenly knelt facing west, his eyes were full of tears, and shouted loudly: "Lu Gong, Chen is incompetent, this will go before you!" After saying that, he pulled out the saber at his waist and wiped it around his neck, and a stream of blood spurted out, and he died of anger.

Zhao Min sighed, the idea of loyalty in the concept of people in this era is not understandable to later generations after all, and it seems that it is more acceptable to die in the name of loyalty than to live. This is true of the leaders of the dead soldiers in the Beihai in the past, and the same is true of Kong Chen today. Zhao Min shook his head, and ordered someone to collect Kong Chen's corpse and bury it in the coming day, and he should go to the county government first.

(There will be a delay)
