As early as when the first fortress was breached, Wang Ziyong, who lived in Baxiantai, Taibai Mountain, could not hear the sound of artillery fire, but now he can hear the sound of artillery fire so really, what does this mean?
Wang Zi used the drum in his heart, the officers and soldiers would not advance so fast, right?
He walked to the intersection of the mountain, tiptoed and looked down, and then the Taibai Mountain was densely forested, and when he looked down from Baxian Terrace, the fortresses in the distance were hidden in the mountains and forests, and he couldn't see the clues.
Wang Ziyong jumped onto a two-meter-high stone platform again, put his hand on the canopy, and looked down, regretting, he still couldn't see anything clearly.
When the soldiers of the People's Army guarding the Baxian Terrace saw their general jumping up and down on the stone platform, they couldn't help but gather around curiously, and asked with a smile: "General, what are you looking at?" ”
Wang Ziyong had no idea in his heart, but when he turned around, he saw a few militia soldiers who were heartless, and asked with a smile, and couldn't help but get angry, jumped off the stone platform, kicked a few militia soldiers who were asking, and scolded: "You bastards still have the leisure to watch the excitement of this general here!" Can't you hear the guns fired by the officials and soldiers under the mountain? Scolding, Wang Ziyong pointed at several people in a row, "You, you, you, and you, let me go down the mountain to see the situation!" The sound of this artillery fire made General Ben's heart fall away! ”
Several soldiers of the People's Army saw that Wang Ziyong was indeed angry, so they nodded their heads and ran away.
Wang Ziyong drove a few soldiers of the People's Army down the mountain to inquire about the situation, and then returned to the wooden house with a long sigh, sat down and drank some herbal tea to relieve himself.
After an hour, the soldier who was in charge of going down the mountain to inquire about the situation rushed all the way up to Basendai. Running into the wooden house, before the people entered the house, they began to shout: "General, it's not good, it's not good!" The officers and soldiers have captured another fortress! ”
Wang Ziyong was so shocked that he almost jumped up from the tiger-skin Taishi's chair, stepped forward and grabbed the collar of his own soldier. Nervously asked, "This, so fast?" ”
The soldiers nodded violently, but they didn't care about the sweat on their faces, and shouted loudly: "The artillery of the official army, too, too fierce!" The subordinates went down the mountain from here, and before they could reach the second fortress, they bumped into the defeated brother who had returned in the middle of the road, and listened to the brother who had returned. After two rounds of artillery bombardment by the officers and soldiers, the brothers in the fortress could not show their heads at all! The second fortress was breached, and it was only two rounds of artillery fire! The subordinates didn't dare to put it aside, so they immediately ran up the mountain again and reported to the general! ”
The cold sweat on his head came down from the king's head, and he circled around the room in a panic, muttering as he turned: "This, how is this a good ......?"
The pro-soldiers saw this. Persuaded: "General, look at the offensive of the official army." The remaining forts at the bottom of the mountain won't last long, so you should have made a plan. ”
Wang Zixin nodded in a panic and said, "This, General Ben knows." Don't worry, let me think and think again. ”
The soldiers blinked and watched Wang Ziyong circling in circles.
After a while. A stout man rushed into the house like a gust of wind, but it was Wang's second brother, Wang Erzhu. Wang Erzhu is tall and big, with horizontal meat and strength. But he is one of the best men in the king's own camp.
When Wang Erzhu entered the house, he grinned at Wang Ziyong and shouted: "Big brother, I just withdrew from the mountain, and the artillery of the official army is too dangerous!" Our fortress can't hold it at all. ”
Wang Ziyong is still very good to this second brother, and when he heard this, he looked at Wang Erzhu with concern and asked, "Second brother is not injured, is he?" ”
Wang Erzhu waved his hand and said, "Big brother, don't worry, when the official army opened fire, I saw that the situation was not right, so I retreated early." ”
Wang Ziyong breathed a sigh of relief, then stared at Wang Erzhu and asked, "Second brother, you come to tell the eldest brother that the artillery of the official army under the mountain is really so good?" ”
When Wang Erzhu heard this, he slapped his legs in horror and shouted: "Big brother, it's not the second brother, I will grow up with other people's ambition and destroy my own prestige!" Since we followed the big leader Wang Jiayin, we have also looked for hundreds of battles, large and small, and it is the first time I have encountered such a fierce artillery fire. Good guys, that cannonball whizzed and exploded when it landed! Fortunately, I saw the opportunity early and retreated from the fortress walls first, so that I was not injured. It's just that I pity the hundreds of guards on the city wall, and I hid in the distance and watched from afar, after the artillery fire of the officials and soldiers stopped, the smoke was billowing on the city wall, and I couldn't see the figures standing at all...... When I saw that the officers and soldiers had entered the city gate, I ran back with the retreating men to see my eldest brother. ”
Wang Ziyong was stunned for a long time when he heard this, and then sighed: "This is the day that will kill my Wang." ”
Wang Erzhu suggested in a low voice: "Big brother, I look at this situation, this time the official army is determined to exterminate us." The fortress under the mountain will not last long. There is a way to stay in the green mountains, not afraid of no firewood. Big brother, there is only one dead end in the mountains, we have to retreat quickly. ”
Wang Ziyong listened, his eyebrows blinked several times, and then nodded unwillingly, "The second brother is extremely right. You and I hurry back to get ready, and after dark tonight, we will take the opportunity to go down the mountain. ”
When Wang Erzhu heard this, he walked out, and said as he went: "Okay, I'll go and inform the brothers under the mountain." ”
"Come back!" Wang Ziyong was shocked, and hurriedly stopped Wang Erzhu and scolded: "Your brain was kicked by a donkey?!" ”
"What's wrong?"
Wang Ziyong pulled Wang Erzhu and whispered in his ear: "You spread the news that we are leaving, who of the brothers under the mountain is willing to guard the mountain for us?" This time the situation is dangerous, so don't notify the other leaders under the mountain, just you and my brothers, with our cronies, quietly descend the mountain. ”
As is the case with most militia groups, although Wang Ziyong's subordinates claim to have 30,000 people, the cronies who really belong to Wang Ziyong's two brothers are actually less than 10,000. The rest of the men and horses were all after Wang Jiayin's death, and the men and horses under him were leaderless, and more than a dozen leaders, large and small, took refuge in Wang for his own use.
For these people who took refuge in him, Wang Ziyong was wary and dependent. However, now was the time to flee for his life, and the king did not hesitate to abandon them.
Wang Erzhu was still a little hesitant, "Big brother, wouldn't it be too unrighteous to do this?" ”
Wang Ziyong said viciously: "This is called non-poisonous husband!" Listen to Big Brother! ”
Wang Erzhu was originally a person who was unwilling to use his brains. Whatever the eldest brother says, he does. Hearing this, Wang Erzhu nodded and said, "Yes, the younger brother listens to the eldest brother." ”
Wang watched Wang Erzhu leave, turned around and went back to the backyard of the wooden house. When I entered the bedroom, I saw two beautiful concubines huddled together, whispering, and saw Wang Ziyong come in, because they had just been slapped by Wang Ziyong a few hours ago, the two beautiful concubines were not very happy, and when they saw Wang Ziyong coming in, they turned their heads and ignored Wang Ziyong.
The king saw this. scolded angrily: "Yo, I'm still angry with the master!" Hurry up and pack your things and get ready to go down the mountain! ”
Luo Rucai's Pingliang soldiers attacked outside the third fortress, then set up camp again, stopped, the camp of the officers and soldiers and the camp of the people's army in the fortress were separated by a fortress, the camp of the officers and soldiers was brightly lit, and the officers and soldiers who had won the battle were beaming. At night dining, the smell of meat wafts through the camp.
The civilian army inside the fortress was dimly lit. The militia soldiers in charge of staying behind stood in the dim light, looking at the camp of officers and soldiers in the distance, and swallowed saliva while on guard.
In the big tent of the Chinese army of the official army, a large cauldron was hanging, and a fire was burning with withered branches below. Wild boar meat is stewed in the pot. While Luo Rucai's Pingliang soldiers were in charge of the attack, He Renlong led the army to unexpectedly capture a wild boar weighing more than 100 catties when he was patrolling around, and added food to the generals in the army that night.
The wild boar in the pot is filled with herbs, spicy seeds, salt and other herbs. The broth was bubbling and bubbling with a tempting burst of steam, and Xu Liang, Luo Rucai, He Renlong, Wang Qinian, and Cao Wenzhao gathered around the cauldron and ate from the iron pot with elongated chopsticks without any image.
Qingyang guerrilla He Renlong ate his mouth full of oil, grinned and quipped: "Alas, Governor Hong is in a hurry, such a rare game, but he has no taste." ”
Cao Wenzhao saw that Xu Liang and the others were looking at him with inquiring eyes, so he smiled curtly: "The Governor is busy with official business, and he is in a hurry, so he didn't greet the Governor. However, before Governor Hong left, he told the last general to tell the governor that he wanted the governor to fight boldly and with confidence, and his old man was waiting for the good news of everyone's victory in Guyuan City. ”
The others listened to Cao Wenzhao's words, although they may not be true, but they all smiled cooperatively. Xu Liang sweated, looked at He Renlong, and said, "Our army has two fortresses in a company, and the news that our army is carrying artillery should have already reached the ears of Wang Ziyong." If the king is not stupid for his own use, he should understand that the fortresses under the mountain will not be able to stop us. In my estimation, Wang Ziyong should be ready to pack up his things and run away. ”
Xu Liang looked at He Renlong and said, "So, General He, tomorrow you will take the Qingyang soldiers to attack the mountain, so you don't have to stick to the progress of ten miles a day, you have to be energetic, speed up, and attack the top of the mountain as soon as possible." The king could not be allowed to escape calmly for his own use. The artillery battalion of the Liang army will fully cooperate with you. ”
When He Renlong heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, and shouted with his fists: "Your Excellency, rest assured, you will attack the mountain at the end of tomorrow, and you will definitely be full of energy, capture Baxiantai, and pull off the head of the child used by the king himself to give the adult a night pot." ”
Luo Rucai smiled and said: "General He, the king's own head must be full of paste, if you give it to our adults, the adults will also dislike it for being dirty." ”
He Renlong grinned and said: "Then use it as a ball to kick, the king himself uses such a big head, it can always be useful." ”
The others laughed when they heard this.
Early the next morning, He Renlong led the Qingyang soldiers to attack the mountain, with the help of the bombardment of the artillery battalion, the people's army on the mountain had no ability to resist back, and in less than two hours, He Renlong captured two fortresses one after another.
He Renlong led his troops to attack the fifth fortress non-stop, and the army came to the outside of the fortress, and He Renlong was about to use the artillery battalion to set up the flying eagle cannon, preparing to follow the old rules, and first give two rounds of artillery bombardment to the civilian army in the fortress.
As a result, someone inside the fortress shouted: "Don't fire the general outside the city!" Don't shoot! We surrendered! Then only a long bamboo pole stretched out of the walls of the fortress, and a white garment torn into strips of cloth hung on it, and it shook back and forth.
He Renlong looked up and exclaimed in surprise, "What's the matter?" General Ben hasn't fired the cannon yet, why did he surrender?! ”
The adjutant general next to him laughed and said: "General, our Flying Eagle Cannon is so at stake, if it were me, I would have to surrender!" ”
He Renlong smacked his lips and shouted to the deputy general with some regret: "Go up and shout, tell the people inside to throw their weapons and line up!" ”
The people's army inside really wanted to surrender, listened to the shouts of the adjutant general, obediently put down their weapons, and then opened the gate of the fortress to welcome the officers and soldiers outside the city into the city.
He Renlong accepted the surrender of the people's army on behalf of the court, and ordered people to escort the four or five hundred people's troops in the fortress down to take care of them, and then brought the leader of the people's army guarding the fortress to him. It's so spineless! Say, why surrender?! ”
The leader of the people's army held his head in both hands, protecting the vital parts, so as not to be hit by He Renlong's fists and feet, and when He Renlong stopped breathing, the leader of the people's army shouted with hatred: "This general, if you don't surrender the small one, you can't do it." The grandson of the king himself is too much of a thing! Arrange for the little one to take people to die here, and the two brothers took their descendants and horses last night and quietly went down the mountain from the trail! ”
He Renlong was stunned when he heard this, and then shouted with wide eyes: "You said that Wang Ziyong ran away?" ”
The leader of the People's Army nodded hatefully.
"Hey!" He Renlong scratched his scalp and said secretly, he really let the governor guess it! Then he kicked the leader again, and while leading people to continue to attack the mountain, he urgently ordered people to report the news of Wang's escape to Xu Liang, the governor of Shaanxi.
Xu Liang was not surprised when he learned that Wang Ziyong had indeed lived up to expectations and fled, and ordered the army in the mountain to speed up the mountain.
The officers and men of the mighty brigade passed through several fortresses that had surrendered unhindered, and at noon, Xu Liang's guard of honor arrived at Baxian Taitai on the top of Taibai Mountain.
This place has been held by He Renlong's troops, and there are twelve leaders of the people's army who surrendered, standing in a row, bowing their heads and waiting for the rebellion of the governor of Shaanxi.
When Xu Liang arrived at Baxiantai, he first briefly visited the wooden house abandoned by Wang Ziyong, and saw that many valuable things in it had not had time to take away, Xu Liang knew that Wang Ziyong's escape was also very hurried.
Coming out of the house, He Renlong led Xu Liang to a small school field that had been repaired by the people's army, about 100 square meters.
There was a row of twelve leaders of the surrendered People's Army.
Xu Liang strode in front of these leaders of the people's army, looked at these leaders of the people's army, shook his head and said with a smile: "I heard General He say that you surrendered because the king used his treachery and ran away secretly, so you surrendered in desperation?" ”
The twelve leaders of the people's army didn't know the details of Xu Liang very well, and they didn't know how to answer Xu Liang's gentle questioning for a while, but fortunately, they were also the leaders of the smart points.
One of the leaders bowed his hand and said, "The governor is gracious, and the younger ones know that the governor personally led the army to attack the mountain, and for the sake of the governor's prestige, they willingly surrendered. As for the two brothers of Wang Ziyong, we are not of the same mind with them in the first place. ”
