Chapter 136: The Reconquest and the Great Purge 1

Qi County.

A soldier yawned, came out of the tent, and stretched a big stretch.

Yawned, looked up and squinted at Hongxia in front of him, it was time to patrol again.

Qi County is located in the northwest of Yanzhou City, after the word Jin Ya army went south, the second county town that was captured, said to be captured, and the knights were secretly opened by some big businessmen in the county with their own guards to let the Jin Ya army enter. The county commanders and captains of Qixian County were all killed by the Yan army, and more than 1,500 government troops, except for more than 500 who died in battle, were all captured and imprisoned in the barracks, and could only eat one meal a day, so that they had no strength to resist.

There are only 1,000 guards in Qi County, and 2,000 are battalion soldiers, and the knights are not battalion soldiers.

Nearly 40,000 Yan troops were defeated in two places, of course, they have not received the news, they think that Yanzhou Mansion is about to be captured by their own warriors, all the county guards are not tight, only know that all day long, rob the people's daughters, rob property, wanton killing.

This Yan army and more than a dozen other Yan soldiers stood in front of the city gate, silently watching the Yan people coming and going, from time to time to snatch the items that these Yan people carried, if it was useful, they would be collected as their own pockets, if it was useless, they would be thrown to the ground, occasionally someone resisted, and they were also killed on the spot by the Yan soldiers, and the corpses were thrown aside to deter the Han people who came and went.

"You see, a caravan is coming, and we are going to send a sum." The sergeant pointed to the long line of carriages that were slowly moving in front of him, and said excitedly to the people around him.

The rest of the soldiers were also smiling. Since the occupation of Qi County by the Yan Army, the number of merchants who come and go has become scarcer and rarer, except for the merchants who are related to the Yan Army, the rest of the merchants no longer come here to do business. These soldiers who defended the city, who usually only received a small benefit from the people who entered and left the city, now had a convoy of thirty or fifty carriages, which naturally made them happy.

"Stop! Who are you? ”

A middle-aged man in his thirties walked up in the caravan, and said to the guards of the city with a smile: "The Miyun County caravan, I have come here to trade leather goods, and several adults have worked hard, so this is a little bit of me." As he spoke, he took out a leather bag and handed it over.

The soldier took it, took a big look, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face, and then said with a cold face: "What are all the things in this carriage?" ”

The middle-aged man laughed and said: "These are some grains, and some sundries, which I wanted to transport to Yanzhou City, but take it, Yanzhou City is at war, so I have to transport it here." ”

"Grain? Let me see! With that, the soldier staggered the middle-aged man and walked towards the carriage.

"Poof......

The soldiers plunged into the carriage, and suddenly, the sack cracked open, and the grain inside flowed outward.

"It's food!" The soldier muttered to himself.

However, he didn't see it, and when he pulled it into the sack, dozens of guards and middle-aged people all had their eyes constricted, and their hands trembled slightly.

"Who are they?" The sergeant pointed to the fifty or so guards and said coldly.

"This adult, they are all my guards, I think my lord also understands, there are a lot of bandits in Yanzhou Mansion now, so many things, there are no guards, how dare I come here to do business?"

"When they enter the city, they have to pay a poll tax."

The middle-aged man grimaced, gritted his teeth for a while, and said, "Okay, just treat it as the hard-earned money that the villain gave to the adults." As he spoke, he took out a leather bag with a distressed face and handed it over.

When he opened it, he found that there were as many as before, and said with a grin: "Count yourself interesting, go in, don't cause trouble, otherwise, you will be good-looking." ”

"Yes, yes...... The small ones are just buying some leather goods, and they will never be troublesome. The middle-aged man lowered his head and said with a quick smile, but his eyes revealed this chill.

"What a strong fellow!" The soldier looked at the guards who were slowly walking towards the city gate, looked at a man in costume, and couldn't help but say.

"Wait!" The soldier suddenly saw a killing intent in the eyes of this big man, as if he was like a veteran on the battlefield, his heart moved, and he shouted loudly.

"Do it!" Seeing that part of the carriage had already led to the city gate, the middle-aged man shouted.

"Boom la la ......"

Among the more than 30 carriages, nearly 200 people came out from under the sacks, and as soon as they appeared, they were lost. Immediately, dozens of soldiers guarding the gate were shot to death.

"Woo woo woo ......"

"Someone is attacking the city!"

With the sound of the horn, the military camp near the south gate immediately became lively, and countless cavalry of the Yan army still converged towards the south gate.

"Captain Han Meng, let the heavy infantry change into heavy armor, guard the city gate, and wait for the arrival of the cavalry."

"Don't worry, Lao Li, just let your people just release the arrows."

"Kill! Kill these unruly swallow dogs! ”

The centurion of the Tatar Army shouted angrily.

"Shoot the arrows!"

Hundreds of arrows shot straight out, but they only clanged lightly on the heavily armored heavy infantry under the city gate, and then fell to the ground weakly.

"Kill! Stab! ”

One hundred and ten cavalry cavalry rushed into the narrow city gate, and the speed was greatly reduced, Han Meng immediately let the heavy infantry raise their shields to block, and the soldiers behind him immediately stabbed their guns, and suddenly more than a dozen cavalry of the Yan army were stabbed and fell off their horses.

"Kill!"

"Hold ......"

On the city wall, the soldiers of the Yan Dynasty also desperately put arrows downward, and suddenly, more than 200 soldiers were in danger.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

A muffled sound came from the southern sky, and knights appeared at the junction of heaven and earth.

"Remove the carriage and let the cavalry brothers kill it."

"Throwing a Gun ......"

Zhao Ning burst into a shout, and the throwing gun in his hand came out of his hand, piercing three cavalrymen in a row before stopping.

"Buzz ......"

Then countless guns were thrown into the cavalry of the Yan Army, which was crowded together inside the city gate, and a large number of them suddenly fell.

"Kill!"

Zhao Ning, who rushed through the south gate, immediately commanded a part of the cavalry to dismount and go straight to the city wall, and a part of the cavalry split into two and headed towards the east and west sides, and he went straight to the county government of Qixian County.

This time, there were 3,000 cavalry and 2,000 infantry soldiers who came with Zhao Ning, while Qi County only had 1,000 Jin Yan troops, and about 2,000 battalion soldiers who had transformed from mountain bandits, how could they be the opponents of the Huolin Army, especially the Huolin Army also carried the handsome banner of the head of the left household. Coupled with the fact that the Huolin army shouted that the army of the Tatars had been defeated, these Tatar troops still had the morale to resist in the south. In particular, the 1,000 government troops who were released from the barracks also joined the queue of counterattacks, and even many civilians also participated.

With the passage of time, the original shouting and killing in Qi County gradually decreased, from sporadic occurrence until there was no sound anymore.

An hour later, the battle had come to an end, and thousands of soldiers of the Warrior Army had been laid to rest forever, and most of the battalions transformed from mountain bandits had been wiped out, and a small number had been captured.

"In Xiaqi County, the military fruit chief Li Hai has been added to the adult." After the war, after the logistics staff were responsible for counting the results, the first one of the 1,000 people released by the government army came to visit.

"Zhao Ning, the deputy general of the left mansion of the Huolin Army, I don't know how many Qi County government troops are there now?"

"If you go back to your lordship, there are a thousand people."

"Well, immediately reorganize and bring it under the jurisdiction of the Huolin Army, this is the military order of the Governor's Mansion!" Zhao Ning said goodbye and handed him a chapter of the order of the Governor's Mansion.

Although he didn't understand why the Governor's Mansion would let the Huolin Army reorganize the government army, as a soldier, he didn't think much about it, and immediately agreed.

"Do you know what big landlords and businessmen in Qi County participated in Kaicheng's surrender to the enemy?"

"Of course the subordinates know that if it weren't for them, we wouldn't have ended up like this, and Qi County wouldn't have lost it lightly, we can't wait to eat their flesh raw."

"Okay, show my people the way, clear them, we don't need to live, they will be at your disposal." Zhao Ning said coldly.

Li Hai was stunned for a moment, and then thanked him: "Thank you, my lord, we are going to kill them and avenge the dead people in Qi County!" ”

Looking at the county government after being cleaned, Zhao Ning secretly thought about the task that Zhao Xun gave him, recovering Qi County was only the first goal.

After last night's big victory, as soon as it dawned today, Zhao Xun gathered all the people to start a recovery operation against Yanzhou Mansion. Of the five counties in Yanzhou Prefecture, three counties have fallen, and two counties are still intact, but Zhao Xun will not let them get out of control. Immediately let the various lieutenants take over and recover these five counties, of course, Bai County last. At the same time, the Governor's Office issued an order that the county commanders and commanders in each county must obey the orders of the school captains they sent. In addition to recovering the five counties, they were also tasked with clearing the dock forts around the five counties.
