Chapter 24: Unrighteous Things

Yang Xuanting, Yang Xuanxing was shot dead on the spot, Yang Minxing was captured, Yang Wanxiang fled, and the Yang brothers who led the army of 100,000 were all lost, and this surrender should have been without suspense, but when Liu Ziqiu led the army out of the city, there was a sudden shout in the Yang family's army, and more than 10,000 cavalry rushed to the south gate together, it turned out that Yang Xuangan usually treats the soldiers well, and these more than 10,000 people are the elite of the Yang family's army, and they are the most loyal to the Yang family

The commander of this army is the veteran Li Zixiong, Li Zixiong is Yang Su's henchman, who has followed Yang Su in the south and the north all the year round, and knows that the only way to solve the dilemma at the moment is to recapture Wuguan, but Wuguan is easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if it is attacked on both sides for a month or two, it is not to think of fighting, originally these veterans who have experienced a hundred battles are most seeking to stabilize the war situation, and it is more in line with their habits to develop step by step, but now Li Zixiong is facing one of the biggest difficulties, that is, there is a shortage of food in the army, no matter how many soldiers and horses are useless, how many powerful armies in history have been defeated in the end in the matter of running out of food, how can Li Zixiong not know

Liu Ziqiu's first words came out, and Li Zixiong began to secretly arrange, in order to make this scene more realistic, he didn't even notify Yang Minxing and Yang Wanxiang, so Yang Minxing and Yang Wanxiang were kept in the dark

When Liu Ziqiu opened the city gate and came out to surrender, Li Zixiong took advantage of the situation to cover the army and kill the past, he believed that as long as he could successfully capture the south gate, his army could recapture Wuguan, and at that time, the 100,000 army would still change his mind

Liu Ziqiu personally led only 5,000 cavalry out of the city, and he was in a weak position in terms of strength, but when he saw Li Zixiong's men and horses suddenly killed, he did not retreat to the pass in a hurry, but waved the Mo knife in his hand and shouted in a deep voice: "Kill the piece of armor and leave it behind."

Both sides are cavalry, and cavalry is often the essence of an army, the speed of the two cavalry is very fast, and the swords are shining, shouting killing, swords and guns clashing, and screams one after another

Li Zixiong's goal is the south gate of Wuguan, he led his subordinates to rush to the past, without stopping to the pass, to see the city gate and not locked, can't help but be overjoyed, these people who seize Wuguan do not know the art of war at all, as long as they seize the south gate, the battle situation will be reversed in an instant, Li Zixiong's hand lance pointed towards the south gate: "rush"

Behind him, there are thousands of soldiers who are fighting to the death with the opposing cavalry, and from time to time someone dismounts their horses, but most of the Western Navy cavalrymen in black clothes and black armor are standing on the horses, Li Zixiong, regardless of these, capturing the south gate is his biggest goal

Suddenly, a group of infantry rushed out from the south gate, this group of about 3,000 infantry, lined up in a neat phalanx, walking slowly but solid and powerful, every step forward, there would be a roar, as for the 5,000 cavalry led by Liu Ziqiu, they had rushed behind Li Zixiong, and after killing more than 3,000 people, they restrained their horses, quietly observed the upcoming battle at the south gate, and did not take the initiative to attack

Li Zixiong was a little dazed for a while, could it be that these people wanted to fight against his 8,000 cavalry with 3,000 infantry, but the hesitation was only fleeting, Li Zixiong shouted angrily, personally led the army to rush to the front, and the 3,000 infantry facing him still walked forward unhurriedly, seeing that Li Zixiong was about to rush to the front, suddenly heard a shout sound, and the front group of infantry suddenly showed their blades more than one person high

A hundred Mo knives were raised in unison, emitting a dazzling cold light in the sun, Li Zixiong's horse was too fast to contain it, but he was not afraid of the lance, and with a wave of the lance, he picked it up and down an infantryman, and the infantry did not avoid it, and the Mo knife went straight up and down, and slashed over, Li Zixiong's long lance stabbed the infantry's chest with horsepower, he shouted loudly, and provoked the other party backwards hard, but he didn't move, and then Li Zixiong felt that he was flying in mid-air, and a headless corpse under his body was split by a few Mo knives, and then he didn't know anything

The cavalry following Li Zixiong watched him being chopped to pieces by the opposing infantry, such a tragic scene was unbearable, but the war horses galloped with all their might, and they couldn't hold their feet at all, they could only hit this wall headlong, in fact, even if they didn't hit it, this wall would not let them go, because the wall itself would move, and it was walking towards them step by step, and they walked very firmly and coldly, leaving severed limbs and stumps everywhere they passed

Liu Ziqiu has already led his cavalry to the side, so that those Yang family's troops outside the city can clearly see the situation on the battlefield, although what he just said is extremely inflammatory, but most people do not see the coffin and do not shed tears, Liu Ziqiu knows this truth well, after all, this world is the world of the strong, and strength can decide everything

In addition to the more than 10,000 cavalry led by Li Zixiong, there are nearly 90,000 people, most of whom are mainly infantry, although they also came down from the bloody battlefield, but it is the first time they have seen such a tragic scene as today, some people have not been able to help but vomit loudly, these people's will has begun to waver, and they have witnessed this cruel killing, and no one can afford to resist anymore

Under the shock of the huge power of the Mo Dao Array, the remaining more than 90,000 people finally gave up their determination to continue to resist, abandoned the swords and guns in their hands, and knelt on the ground to surrender, but Yang Minxing also took advantage of the chaos and did not know where to flee under the protection of dozens of diehard cronies

……

However, it was said that the other three roads attacked Shangyi, Wugong, and Xuwu counties respectively, and it was almost effortless, and the three routes of troops and horses marched together to attack Chang'an City, and Liu Ziqiu did not stop after eliminating Yang Xuanting's army that attacked Xiao Miao, and directly waved his army north, and the target was also directed at Chang'an

The army crossed the Xunshui Meridian Pass, and the guard Tang Yan offered the pass, and bowed his head and said: "The first emperor was harmed by Yang Xuangan, and the official had no choice but to act from the thief, and the general Xingyi hoped that the general would break the thief as soon as possible and welcome the emperor in Luoyang."

Liu Ziqiu frowned and said: "What does it mean to welcome the emperor to Luoyang?"

Tang Yan said with tears in his eyes: "The first emperor died, all the kings were mourned, only the Tang Guogong Li Yuan, Lord Li helped the new emperor to ascend the throne, it was for the orthodox general, I don't know."

Liu Ziqiu laughed and said: "Lord Tang is a loyal minister, but Lord Tang only knows one but doesn't know the other, Yang Gao is just the son of the first emperor, how can he be orthodox, the real orthodoxy, now that the West Sea is about to break through Chang'an, Liu will welcome him back to Beijing, and the Lord will not worry about it, but how to break through the Lord of Chang'an has a good plan."

Hearing that the orthodoxy of the Great Sui was in the West Sea, Tang Yan quickly thought of a person, that is, Yu Wenhua and Yang Yu, who had been supported, according to Yang Xuangan, the nomadic tribe from the West Sea captured Longxi, and took away the concubines and palace maids in the Longxi Palace, killed Yu Wenhua and his brothers and Yang Yu, although the young general in front of him was a Han Chinese, and he also played the banner of the Great Sui, but the army's attire was very different from the Sui army, Tang Yan couldn't help but be vigilant, and asked: "I don't know how the general wants to deal with the concubines and palace maids in Yishou Palace, Xianyou Palace, Ganquan Palace, Taiping Palace and Sizhu Garden."

At this moment, the army and horses led by Zhang Liang have occupied Jingyang City in the north of Chang'an, Shi Danai, this road of military horses has captured the Shiping City west of Chang'an, Guihaiqiu, this road has captured Ju County in the southwest of Chang'an, Liu Ziqiu occupied the Meridian Pass south of Chang'an, after the forward pointed directly to Lantian City in the southeast of Chang'an, has formed a three-fold clamp on Chang'an, these palaces are in the west and south of Chang'an City, and naturally have fallen into Liu Ziqiu's control

Tang Yan's question seemed a little strange, but in fact he was testing Liu Ziqiu, if Liu Ziqiu wanted to take these concubines and palace maids for himself or take them away, then Liu Ziqiu was not a real Great Sui general, it was likely that a certain tribe or several tribes in the West Sea joined forces to rob Chang'an, in case this was the case, Tang Ziqiu would not be able to help Liu Ziqiu attack Chang'an anyway

Hearing this series of palace names, Liu Ziqiu secretly shook his head, Yang Guangxi's expedition to Tuguhun, the digging of the Grand Canal, and the establishment of the imperial examination system These measures did create a new world for the Great Sui Dynasty, but he was so happy and extravagant, and it did bring deep suffering to the people of the Great Sui, not to mention that these palaces set up all over the country, each palace has no less than five or six hundred palace maids, not to mention tens of thousands, so many palace maids, just to satisfy his own YWN, but I don't know how many women and their families have never had the chance to see each other again

Liu Ziqiu was silent for a long time, sighed and said: "Those concubines and palace maids, if they can go home, let them go home, if they can't go home temporarily because of the war, they can also marry the soldiers under Liu's command, of course, these must be voluntarily by them, neither can they go home, nor do they want to marry, it has nothing to do with it, so they will be allocated fields and houses by the nearby counties, so that they can find their own way out."

Tang Yan was stunned for a moment, and then put his mind at ease, although Liu Ziqiu's arrangement was contrary to the dignity of the royal family, but it was a gospel for those young women, thinking of this, Tang Yan arched his hand and said: "General Qiqi, the whole territory of Jingzhao is short of food, and the food in Chang'an City may not be able to support it for a month, this is still not taking into account the consumption of the people, and if you want to break Chang'an, as long as Chang'an City is surrounded on all sides, Yang Xuan will be defeated."

Liu Ziqiu thought about it, but shook his head and said: "The art of war is ten times more than the cloud, it is said that there are still 200,000 defenders in Chang'an City, Liu Mou's command is only 100,000 people, how can they surround them, and besides, the siege of the city for a long time, the first to starve to death in the city will not be Yang Xuangan and his army, but the people in the city, Liu Mou, can never do this unrighteous thing",.
