Chapter 366: The Last Stand

(

Li Yuntian's way of dealing with the captives was undoubtedly risky, but there was no way out, he had no other place to place those prisoners, and as the battle progressed, the captives were obviously no longer suitable to stay in Black Bull Town. The update is the fastest, the most stable, and the update is the fastest

In addition to the fact that there is a high chance of a rebellion against the captives, if the elite of the rebels attack the place where the captives are being held, the captives will inevitably join the rebels again.

Therefore, Li Yuntian's soldiers made a dangerous move, and after envy and power, he sent the captives to Cangzhou City.

The reason why Li Yuntian wanted to let those captives go to Cangzhou City was because he had already received news from Cangzhou City when he was in the morning, and the general soldiers who were put back by him successfully controlled the situation in Cangzhou City and captured Niu Fei, the commander of the Cangzhou guards, which gave Li Yuntian a place to place those prisoners.

Otherwise, the Xiaowu Army will suppress those rioting prisoners, which will not only waste the strength of the Xiaowu Army, but also bear the reputation of killing prisoners in the future.

Facts proved that Li Yuntian's adventure was successful, and only more than 300 of the nearly 2,500 captives escaped on the march, and the remaining captives arrived safely in Cangzhou City and were imprisoned in the barracks inside the city.

For those who escaped, the accompanying escorts had already been instructed by Li Yuntian and did not stop them, which played an invisible deterrent effect, and at the same time made the prisoners believe Li Yuntian's words even more.

After all, the captives also have their own families, maybe they are not afraid of life and death on the battlefield, but now that they have become captives, it can be said that they have already walked in front of the Ghost Gate, so after Li Yuntian pointed out a way for them to live, most of them would not go to the King of Han again, and no one wanted to go to the Ghost Gate Pass again.

Moreover, as Li Yuntian said, the King of Han is now blocked in Heiniu Town, and there are interceptions in front and pursuers in the back, and the trip to the north has failed. [36315671 Ruling Daming Ruling Daming] 363 Ruling Daming 366

After Cangzhou was recovered by the official army, the situation of the Han King will be even more difficult, and there is a good chance that Emperor Xuande will be defeated, and there are no more than three endings for the rebels, one is to die in battle, one is to be a prisoner, and the other is to surrender.

Since the rebellion of the Han King will fail sooner or later, these captives will naturally lose the motivation to follow the Han King.

What is particularly important is that Li Yuntian is also from Shandong, and the vast majority of the captives are also from Shandong, and the two sides have a friendship with fellow villagers, which is an extremely important social relationship in ancient times, so the captives believe that Li Yuntian will not harm them, otherwise the Li family will have no face to stay in Lijiazhuang.

Combining a variety of factors, those prisoners were properly resettled without danger, and Li Yuntian successfully resolved an imminent crisis with amazing courage and open-mindedness.

After the prisoners were sent away, Li Yuntian was able to devote all his energy to the battle against the rebels, and the battle reports of Zhennan continued to collect to him.

Although the rebels were menacing this time, the Xiaowu army led by Li Daniu and Wang Jian was extremely tenacious, and the rebels were no longer able to advance after attacking two-thirds of the town.

The battle has reached this point, the soldiers on both sides have no fear and fear, they have already killed in the dark of the night, putting life and death aside, and the only thing they want to do is to kill each other.

Wei Da and Wang Bin waited anxiously outside the town, the two had already learned that the rebels' attack in the town had been blocked, but since the Xiaowu army and the rebels were now fighting together in the town, they were fighting separately, so there was nothing good for the two of them to do.

The Han King's own soldiers would come every once in a while to inquire about the progress of the battle, and before the battle, the Han King had already thought that this attack would definitely not go smoothly, but he did not expect that the truth would be worse than he expected.

The town of Black Bull was in flames, and the fierce fighting alarmed the villagers of the nearby villages one after another.

The villagers were awakened in their sleep, and they went out one after another, gathering at the entrance of the village and whispering in the direction of Heiniu Town, talking about whether to take refuge elsewhere to avoid being harassed by the "chaotic" soldiers.

Because Cangzhou was an important battle area between Emperor Yongle's Yan army and Emperor Jianwen's southern army during the Jingjing, the villagers of the older generation still remember the past events of the "chaotic" soldiers plundering the village, so many villagers packed their luggage overnight and dragged their children to nearby towns or county towns to take refuge.

When the first rays of morning light poured on the black bull town with endless killing sounds and the smell of blood, Wei Da and Wang Bin could no longer hold back, and coincidentally sent the last 2,000 rebels in their hands out, leaving only more than 100 personal soldiers by their side, ready to crush the defense of the Xiaowu army in the town in one fell swoop.

Following the orders of the two, 4,000 rebels rushed into the town with great momentum, and quickly marched along the streets towards the area north of the town controlled by the Xiaowu army.

The Xiaowu army, which was fighting fiercely with the rebels in the town, was caught off guard, and the defense line was suddenly broken through several openings, and the rebels entered the north of the town. [36315671 Ruling Daming Ruling Daming] 363 Ruling Daming 366

When Li Yuntian learned of this, he knew that Wei Da and Wang Bin would also use the last of their troops, so he immediately made a decision and let the 3,000 Xiaowu army, who had been waiting for orders in the north of the town, go to meet the enemy.

The final decisive battle between the two sides has begun, and the entire town of Black Bull has been reduced to a battlefield, with fighting everywhere, blood everywhere, and death everywhere.

On the roof of the reception hall of the Wang family, Li Yuntian's handsome flag gently swayed in the early morning breeze.

Although the guards and thousands of households around him persuaded Li Yuntian to evacuate first, but he refused, Li Yuntian fulfilled his previous promise and never took a step back in Heiniu Town, swearing to block the rebels of the Han King.

Therefore, the defense of the Xiaowu army around the Wang family's mansion was the toughest, and all the rebels who approached the compound were killed one after another.

Li Yuntian sat quietly in the gazebo, holding his saber in both hands and closing his eyes to recuperate, at this time only his own soldiers were left in the courtyard, and the rest of the people had already been sent by him to fight the rebels.

Since the neighborhood around the Wang family's mansion had become a battlefield for the battle between the Xiaowu army and the rebels, Li Yuntian could even faintly hear the wails and screams of the soldiers before they died.

"Brother-in-law, it's too dangerous here, you should retreat outside the town first, we are here to resist." A burly Qianhu with blood stains on his body carried a knife that kept dripping blood, hurriedly came in from outside, and said in a deep voice to Li Yuntian.

This person is none other than Zhou Zheng's third son, Zhou Ming, Zhou Yuting's sixth brother, after being sent by Zhou Zheng to study in the martial arts hall, because of his military qualities, he was promoted by Li Yuntian as a student to the thousand households of the Xiaowu Army.

"Sixth brother, this official can't go, otherwise he will break his promise, and he won't be able to raise his head in front of everyone in the future." Li Yuntian opened his eyes when he heard this, and smiled at Zhou Ming.

"When I came, my father said, no matter what, let me guarantee your safety, since you don't leave, then I'll stay here, and we'll die together." Zhou Ming saw that Li Yuntian had made up his mind, so he no longer persuaded him, and hurriedly left with a knife and went to the outside of the courtyard to make arrangements.

Looking at Zhou Ming's back, the corners of Li Yuntian's mouth couldn't help but show a wry smile, he regretted bringing Zhou Ming to Cangzhou, this time the pursuit of King Han was extremely dangerous, if Zhou Ming had any accidents, how should he explain to Zhou Zheng?

In the morning, at midnight, Wei Da and Wang Bin outside the town finally learned the news of a big banner with the words "Jiangwutang" fluttering above the Wang's compound, and the Xiaowu army in the streets near the Wang's compound was extremely fierce.

The two immediately realized that this banner was Li Yuntian's handsome banner, and the only person who was qualified to use this flag in the Xiaowu Army was Li Yuntian, which also meant that Li Yuntian was in the Wang family's mansion.

In the art of war, Wei Da and Wang Bin naturally understood the principle of capturing the thief and capturing the king first, so the two of them quickly made a decision and led their own soldiers into Heiniu Town, preparing to personally command the rebels in the town to launch an attack on the Wang family compound.

In the eyes of the two, as long as Li Yuntian can be captured, then the Xiaowu army will definitely be defeated.

As Wei Da and Wang Bin joined the battle, the rebels in the town then rushed in the direction of the Wang family compound, and the rebels' move was quickly noticed by Li Daniu and Wang Jian, who did not dare to slack off, and immediately mobilized their Xiaowu army to move closer to the Wang family mansion to block the rebels who tried to attack Li Yuntian.

As a result, the rebels and the Xiaowu army launched a fierce battle around the Wang family compound, the rebels attacked with all their might under the supervision of Wei Da and Wang Bin, and the Xiaowu army desperately defended under the command of Li Daniu and Wang Jian.

Whether it was Wei Da, Wang Bin, Li Daniu, or Wang Jian, they all knew that the war had progressed to this point, and the soldiers on both sides were exhausted, and the reason why they were still fighting was because there was a belief in victory supporting them, which was what people usually called holding them up in one breath.

Therefore, if anyone is relieved first at this time, it will lead to catastrophic consequences, and the defeat is the most vivid and vivid portrayal of this result.

This also means that the Xiaowu army and the rebels will have a final battle around the Wang family's mansion in Black Bull Town.

Li Yuntian knew from the battle report that he had become a target of the rebels, and he had already expected this outcome since the banner of the martial arts hall was erected on the roof of the Wang family.

As for whether the Xiaowu army can hold the Wang family's compound, Li Yuntian is really not sure, but life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky, he has done what he can, and now he can only wait for the result.

Although Li Yuntian stayed in the courtyard, the sound of fighting outside the wall became clearer and clearer, and he knew that the rebels were advancing in the direction of the Wang family's compound little by little.

After all, the elite of the rebel army is not in vain, it has a lot of combat effectiveness, and the battlefield of the Xiaowu army and the rebel army is in the entire Black Bull Town, and the defense line of the Xiaowu army cannot be impregnable.

At the same time, in the village south of Heiniu Town, King Han was anxiously waiting for the latest battle situation, he already knew that the rebels had discovered Li Yuntian's location, as long as Li Yuntian was captured, the Xiaowu army in Heiniu Town would naturally lose their fighting spirit.

After paying such a huge loss in Heiniu Town, the King of Han had no way to retreat at this time, and he had to lead his army north, otherwise the battle of Heiniu Town would not only become a shame for him, but also the future battle in Shandong would be in trouble.

King Han knew very well that Zhang Hao would never let him retreat to Dezhou City lightly, originally he had 40,000 elite rebels with a morale like a rainbow, even if Wang Jian failed to attack Heiniu Town before, there were nearly 30,000 people, and he was not afraid of Zhang Hao at all.

But now the elite of the rebels is mired in the quagmire of the war in Heiniu Town, if they can't capture Heiniu Town, not only will they suffer heavy casualties, but also their morale will be hit hard, and they will no longer be able to compete with Zhang Hao, so they can only retreat to Le'an in disgrace.

In this way, the rebels will be separated by the Ming army in Texas and Le'an, and then there is a risk that they will be broken by the Ming army one by one.

Unless the King of Han or LĂź Ping can make a beautiful comeback to change the situation, the rebels will inevitably fall into a difficult situation and be firmly suppressed by the Ming army.!^!
