Chapter 309 Collecting the hearts of the people and establishing the power of the city

The injured assassin was already frightened by Yang Ping'an, facing the unexplainable injury full of strange colors, which was completely beyond his cognition, looking at Yang Ping'an who was forced to ask in front of him, he was frightened by the six gods and no master, he trembled his lips and said everything he knew.

They are not Tian Cewei, but ordinary people in the rivers and lakes, wanted by the government for committing crimes, and in desperation, they took refuge in a powerful family in the city, and now they came to assassinate Yang Ping'an, that is, they were ordered by the magnates, killed Yang Ping'an, and then sought an opportunity to escape from the only north gate that was not blocked.

Yang Ping'an interrogated it three times, and the results have not changed, it seems that this person should not be lying, but he always felt that there was something wrong in this matter, and he couldn't understand it for a while, and some regretted that he didn't leave two more alive or leave the leader.

The leading assassin, who pretended to be a subordinate of the Taishou Mansion, was shot dead by Yang Ping'an and then made up a knife to confirm his death.

Asked the injured assassin to be taken to the care, Yang Ping'an returned to the room to comfort the frightened Yang Yuhuan, but he always felt that this matter was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

Just when he was about to go through it from the beginning, a hurried voice came from outside the courtyard: "Master Pony, Master Pony is not good, Lord Xu is injured." ”

How, still come.

Yang Ping'an frowned, let Yang Yuhuan stay in the room, and strode out with a mandarin duck dagger in his left hand and a pistol in his right hand.

But this time it was true, the hair of the few people who came to report the news was scattered, their clothes were torn and covered in blood, and they looked like they had just gone through a fight, whether it was their eyes, face, bloodstains, breath, or footsteps, they were not pretended, and more importantly, two of them were descendants of the Xu family, Yang Ping'an had seen them, and they had been following Xu Yuan's side.

"What the hell is going on?"

Xu Yuan was really injured.

Today, the Zhou army attacked the city without temptation, and it was a fierce attack as soon as it came up, and at first it really caught Xu Yuan off guard, and the head of the city was almost occupied by the Zhou army.

Fortunately, Xu Yuan reacted quickly and found out in time, and immediately sent people to transfer all the soldiers and horses to the city, desperately blocking the Zhou army besieging the city, and did not engage in any rotation.

There are only more than 5,000 soldiers and horses in the city, how can the Zhou army have the strength to rotate in the face of tens of thousands of Zhou troops, but the Zhou army outside the city, which occupies a huge upper hand in numbers, is divided into three groups to take turns to attack the city, each wave can be regarded as recuperating, if it were not for the Tang army to occupy the advantage of defending the city, and there are Xu Yuanshen to inspire the soldiers, I am afraid that the Tang army would have been defeated long ago.

Just when Yang Ping'an was facing the six assassins, Xu Yuan was commanding at the head of the city, and the result was really as the assassins made up, he was shot by a stray arrow.

"Where is Lord Xu now, is he seriously injured." Yang Ping'an was anxious, although Xu Yuan was a civil official, but he had served in Yangzhou for many years, and won the hearts of the people with his honesty and fairness, it can be said that he was the backbone of the Yangzhou military and the people, if Yangzhou wants to defend, he must not be missing.

"Lord Xu said that the city head could not do without him, he just did a simple bandage and commanded the city head, he said that he wanted to live and die with Yangzhou City." A soldier said with a whimpering sob.

Wounded...... Coexist and die with Yangzhou......

At this moment, Yang Ping'an suddenly recalled that in the Anshi Rebellion recorded in the history books, there was indeed a person named Xu Yuan, who also raised his hand and held on to the city in the face of the menacing rebels, leaving a strong mark in history.

"Then what are you going to do when you come back?" Yang Ping'an was furious.

"Lord Xu ordered us to escort the horses out of the city......"

Xu Yuan knew that Yangzhou couldn't hold it anyway, thinking of Yang Ping'an's surname and his identity, not only did he not stop him, but also decided to send someone to send him out of Yangzhou so as not to be buried in Yangzhou.

After understanding Xu Yuan's thoughts, Yang Ping'an's body trembled, and he saw these people walking quickly, and one of them said anxiously: "Master Pony, let's go, we will escort you from the north gate, if it is too late, I am afraid that Yangzhou will not be able to hold it." ”

While talking, several of them even came to tear Yang Ping'an, as if they were eager to pull him away, Yang Ping'an was furious and struggled to break free: "What are you doing, are you so scared that you don't dare to stay even for a moment." ”

"The adults misunderstood us, we just want to send the adults out of Cheng as soon as possible, complete the life of Lord Xu, and then return to the city to live and die with Yangzhou City."

"That's right, even if you die, you have to kill a few pads."

"The two of us are originally members of the Xu family, if it weren't for Lord Xu, the two of us would have starved to death, we will die with Lord Xu, and we will serve the Lord before and after the saddle when we go underground."

……

Listening to the impassioned words of several people, Yang Ping'an's nose was sour, and he was a little moved in his heart: "Okay, they are all good men, Lord Xu didn't see the wrong person, it is my honor to know a few people." ”

Speaking of this, he turned his head and said to the house: "Yunu, don't come out if you stay in the room, I'll come when I go, you listen, I, Yang Ping'an, am also the master of standing and peeing, how can I be a person who retreats from the battle and flees without a fight, all follow me, go to the city, kill the enemy, and protect Yangzhou." ”

"Your Excellency."

"Your Excellency."

"Your Excellency."

"Less nonsense, it's the gentlemen who follow me."

With a loud shout, Yang Ping'an took the lead in walking out of the courtyard, but found that more than a dozen people had gathered outside the courtyard, all of whom were subordinates of the Xu family, carrying wooden sticks and steel forks in their hands, obviously gathering here after learning that Xu Yuan was injured.

Seeing Yang Ping'an coming out, one of them shouted, "I am willing to attack and kill the enemy with Master Horse." ”

"Okay, there are no horses today, only Yang Ping'an, like you, an ordinary person in heaven and earth, who is willing to kill the enemy with me, they are all brothers, and they will kill the enemy together.

The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man is gone. ”

When he walked out of the Taishou Mansion, there were less than twenty people behind Yang Ping'an, but they exuded a monstrous battle intent, and their eyes were full of determination.

But when they arrived in Nancheng, the team had grown to hundreds of people, and it was still growing, and many people in the city heard about it, especially Yang Ping'an, who was a concubine but didn't care about life and death, and did not hesitate to protect Yangzhou.

The battle situation in the south of the city was even worse than Yang Ping'an imagined, and before he reached the root of the city, he saw the surrounding ruins, broken walls, loess, and huge rocks were messy.

Waiting for the head of the city, I saw that the city wall was broken, the corpses were everywhere, the shouts of killing, the sound of gold and iron were endless, but there were no stones, these stones thrown up by the trebuchet had already been thrown down the city by the defenders of the city as a thing to defend the city, and many Zhou soldiers were killed.

The situation at the head of the city is in crisis, more and more Zhou troops rushed up to the city from the ladder, fighting with the Tang army, from time to time people or corpses fell from the city, and there were Zhou troops under the city who kept hitting the city gate with rushing cars and woods, making loud noises.

"Kill."

The battlefield is a wonderful place, rendering an atmosphere that cannot be simulated elsewhere, often leading to a certain side of people's hearts, and making people involuntarily involved in this atmosphere, Yang Ping'an is an example.

Seeing the bloody and tragic scene at the head of the city, looking at Xu Yuan, who was covered in blood not far away and fighting with the Zhou army while commanding, Yang Ping'an only felt that a fire burned in his chest, and his whole body burned in an instant, and the blood boiled all over his body, and he rushed to the nearest Zhou army with a roar.

"Kill."

"Kill."

"Kill."

Most of the hundreds of people he brought were ordinary people, but they were full of energy, especially when they saw Yang Ping'an's ferocity, which inspired them, and they immediately rushed over with a scream.

Yang Ping'an picked up a spear from the ground and threw it at a Zhou soldier in front of him who was about to look at Tang Bing with a knife.

"Poof", the spear penetrated the chest of the Zhou soldier, the steel knife in his hand fell to the ground before slashing to the Tang Army, and the Tang soldier who escaped death wiped the sweat on his face, and saw that Yang Ping'an was about to thank him, but saw that Yang Ping'an had already passed by him, and pulled out the spear from the chest of the Zhou army, and the spear danced wildly and rushed towards the city.

Regardless of the Tang Army or the Zhou Army, most of the soldiers at the bottom are very ordinary, and after being a soldier, they go to the battlefield after basic training, even if they are veterans, they have more battlefield experience and more life-saving skills, but the kung fu in their hands will not be too high.

So when Yang Ping'an carried a spear and unleashed the [***] big gun, the Zhou army around Yang Ping'an almost did not have a triad at all.

Thanks to his courage and his identity, the morale of the Tang army defending the city was greatly boosted, and for a time it overwhelmed the Zhou army at the head of the city, and also burned several ladders of the Zhou army, which made the situation at the head of the city much better.

A general of the Zhou army discovered Yang Ping'an's bravery, and carried the nine-ring broadsword to kill two people one after another, knocking and flying, and the three rushed behind Yang Ping'an, and slashed down at Yang Ping'an's head with a Taishan pressure.

Hearing the sound of the wind behind his head, Yang Ping'an hurriedly turned sideways, and at the same time blocked with the body of the gun, which was able to dodge the knife, but he was also shocked by the other party, and sighed in his heart.

"The enemy general signed up, I am Cai De, and I will not kill the unknown under the knife."

"Bang."

"You, you despicable......" Cai De, who was majestic and burly, holding a nine-ring broadsword, said the last half of the words in the human voice, his eyes fell unwillingly with hatred, and a bloody hole in his forehead was eye-catching.

Bad pen, where does so much nonsense come from.

Cai De's strength is not small, the knife just now made Yang Ping'an understand that he can't judge the level of himself and the other party, even if he can win, it will not be so simple, so he did not hesitate to shoot it, and the result was Cai De.

He couldn't have imagined that Cai De was the leader of the siege Zhou army, and he was also a few fierce generals under Du Bin, who fought bravely and dared to fight, but unfortunately died in the hands of Yang Ping'an.

He didn't know, it didn't mean that Xu Yuan didn't know, when Yang Ping'an led people to the city, he rushed forward without hesitation, Xu Yuan noticed him.

At first, he was worried about Yang Ping'an's safety, but when he saw Yang Ping'an's bravery, a spear was like a flying dragon killing one after another, and he was immediately relieved.

However, when he saw that Yang Ping'an didn't know how to kill Cai De, he was surprised and happy in his heart, forced back the Zhou army in front of him with a sword, quickly ran towards Cai De's corpse, cut off the head with a sword, and found Chang Ge from the side to pick up the head, and shouted loudly: "The enemy general Cai De is dead, the enemy general Cai De is dead, the horse is mighty, the magic is unparalleled, kill Cai De." ”
