Chapter Fifty-Six: The City of Lightning Grams
The Spring Festival is the most important festival in the Great Jin Kingdom and the beginning of the new year, so on this day everyone will be very happy to change into costumes and then participate in various activities to celebrate the beginning of the new year.
Bianxi Jincheng, the tower above the city tower is empty, and there is not even a soldier defending the city. The vanguard cavalry of the Western Army slaughtered under the city of Jincheng, captured the tower without difficulty, and waited for the arrival of the Western Army.
In fact, the Western Army was half an hour's journey behind the vanguard cavalry. When Yun Ye led the soldiers of the Western Army to arrive, the Jin troops in Jincheng were still carnivaling, and they did not realize that the enemy had entered the city. What they didn't know was that the scouts they sent out to scout had just gone out for a walk around and came back to celebrate the New Year.
"The merchant girl doesn't know the hatred of the country, and she still sings the backyard flowers across the river. They are soldiers, but they do the same things as those prostitutes, what is the use of such soldiers? Kill! ”
As soon as Yunye gave the order, the soldiers of the Western Army went to the Jin army camp in the city to kill.
"Report! Report General! The Western Army, the Western Army is coming into the city! ”
A soldier stumbled into the general's palace to report to their general, his clothes still stained with undried liquor.
"What? How can it be? Today is the Spring Festival, don't they celebrate the New Year? That's not right, what about our scouts? Where are they all dead? Didn't you send out to scout today? ”
Hearing the news, the general of the Jin army was first shocked, and then turned into anger, and in a rage, he smashed out a series of questions.
But he obviously asked the wrong questions, a small soldier, just responsible for reporting, nothing else, even if you kill him, it can't change the fact that the Western army has already entered the city.
"All the officers and men of the Western Army, listen, as long as anyone dares to resist, kill without mercy, and surrender on their own initiative, spare their lives!"
Yun Ye shouted loudly, he can't kill too recklessly now, otherwise he will let himself and the Western Army wear the hat of indiscriminate killing of innocents, and make the people lose confidence in themselves, after all, no one likes a murderous person to control their own destiny.
"No!"
10,000 soldiers of the Western Army, like a tiger, entered the camp of the Jin army, and the Jin army, who was still drinking and gambling, did not wear armor and did not hold a blade in their hands, so they could only be slaughtered by the soldiers of the Western Army.
"Those who descend will not be killed! Those who dare to resist will be killed! ”
Several soldiers of the Western Army shouted loudly, this was what Yunye ordered them, they couldn't blindly kill, but also recruited a part to strengthen their strength.
In fact, the Jin army didn't resist much at all, except for some people who were killed by the Western army who rushed in at first, everyone immediately raised their hands and surrendered after reacting.
There are only 1,000 defenders in the large military camp of Nuo, and it is really impossible to imagine how empty the troops of the towns in the west have become.
"Escort all the prisoners of war to the school grounds, leave 3,000 people to guard the prisoners of war and the barracks, and the rest will go to the general's palace with me!"
So many Jin troops surrendered, but Yun Ye didn't see their generals, and today is the New Year, so the generals of the Jin army must still be somewhere else in the city.
Sure enough! Yun Ye was rushing to the street of the General's Mansion with the soldiers of the Western Army, and met the Jincheng guard who was running this way.
The Jincheng guard with more than 100 people, saw Yunye and a group of soldiers of the Western Army, and knew that he was not an opponent at all, so he also stopped and stood at the intersection of the street to confront the Western Army.
"On the other side should be General Yun Yeyun, the commander of the Western Army, right? Ben will be polite! The imperial court has issued a killing order for you, so I can only choose to resist, and in the current situation, if we fight you, it will only be the total annihilation, and it will not even be enough for you to plug your teeth. I would like to ask you to spare our family members here, they all say that innocent people do not deserve to die! ”
General Kaneshiro clenched his fist at Yunye and pleaded for his family. He was also forced to do so, if someone else came in, he would have abandoned the city and fled, but the Western Army was different, the imperial court issued a killing order, if he did not do his best to kill the Western Army, he would definitely be connected to the Nine Clans, and even if he fled, he would not be able to escape for long, and it would be easy for Dali Temple to catch him.
"Family members can stay, but as a soldier, you should fulfill your duties as a soldier!"
Yun Ye raised his eyebrows and said coldly to the Jincheng guard. During the war, if you don't do a good job of prevention, you will be exploited by the enemy, which is extremely irresponsible to the people, such a person, he looks down on, such a person, is not worthy of being his opponent, so naturally he does not deserve his respect.
"I know that it is my dereliction of duty that you can attack so easily, so I will apologize for my sins and give an explanation to the people of Jincheng!"
After speaking, Shogun Kaneshiro immediately drew his sword and wiped his neck. Blood poured out, and the surrounding Jin soldiers looked at this scene in horror, not knowing whether to surrender or follow their generals to the end.
"Surrender, your comrades in the barracks are waiting for you with their hands raised, there is no need to die in vain!"
Yun Ye said to the group of Jin soldiers who were still in doubt, they were able to follow their generals loyally when they were at a disadvantage, which showed that they were all loyal people, and that general was not useless, at least he had a group of soldiers who were loyal to him.
In the end, the ** of life still defeated the determination to sacrifice his life but not necessarily become benevolent, and the soldiers of the Jin army made eye contact, then they all put down the blades in their hands, squatted on the ground, and waited for Yunye's order.
"Back to the barracks!"
Yun Ye waved his hand and motioned for these prisoners and his own soldiers to return to the barracks together, and now all he had to do was to deal with the prisoners of war.
Jincheng was thus taken by the Western Army with lightning speed, and when people were celebrating the Spring Festival, they attacked unexpectedly and opened the curtain of war.
Having taken the first city outside of Qinzhou City, Jincheng was the place where the Jin army stockpiled grain, grass and ordnance horses, and this small warehouse could be used as a base for the Western Army. And the geographical location of Jincheng is very important, a hundred miles to the east is Qinzhou City, more than 100 miles to the west, is the Longjiang front, here, you can attack the front line, retreat can gallop to Qinzhou.
After returning to the barracks, Yun Ye began to reorganize those prisoners, and after the soldiers and those who were waiting to die were all kicked out, only half of the people were left, and after these people were trained by Cold Thorn, they would also become warriors of the Western Army who could fight well.
Overlooking the city, the flag is fluttering, the sunset in the west is about to set, and a trace of red glow hangs in the sky, like a red spear, wanting to pierce the sky.
The show is about to begin!
