Chapter 595: Atrocities
The sound of shouting and killing in Hedong City shook the sky, Su Dingfang was wearing armor, his face was cold, standing on the high platform, looking at the eyes of tens of thousands of soldiers below, several years have passed, the young people of the year are calm, and they already have the demeanor of a general, Guanzhong sent 30,000 troops, plus their own 20,000 troops, that is, 50,000 people, this time we are practicing together, is to let these 50,000 people quickly integrate together, increase combat effectiveness.
"In the end, the army that has stayed in the Lantian camp does look very elite, and the 50,000 army has been trained like this in such a short period of time, which surprises the last general!" Duan Decao said with a smile, beside him was his son Duan Zhiming.
"That's it, our army's elite soldiers are out of Lantian!" Duan Zhiming said proudly. These 30,000 troops were selected by him from the Lantian camp, and when he heard his father's words, he was suddenly a little proud.
"It looks very good, but what is lacking is evil spirit, and what the army of the Lantian battalion lacks is battle." Su Dingfang shook his head and said: "It's a pity that the bandits in Hedong have been wiped out by me, so let these guys grow up quickly, I'm afraid they can only find trouble with Li Zhao." ”
Duan Decao's father and son were stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, it was really the case, but they just sighed: "The prime minister's attention at this time is still on Wang Shichong, and he has eliminated Wang Shichong, and then Jiangnan and Shandong, and when the prime minister comes to destroy Li Zhao, I'm afraid it will take several years." ”
"Report! General, someone outside who claimed to be a secret envoy of the Jinyi guard asked to see the general. At this time, outside the camp, they rushed to count the horses, and as soon as one of them finished speaking, he saw a cavalry jumping up behind.
"Zhang Hu, the general manager of Jinyi Weiqian, sent a message on the orders of Lord Cen." Zhang Hu showed his sign, stepped forward and whispered: "The Turkic army of 100,000 is coming to Hedong. The general is ready. ”
"What you said is true?" Su Dingfang's face suddenly changed, the Turkic army of 100,000 is not terrible, what is terrible is the influence, at this time, there are 100,000 troops killed, obviously coming at Li Xin to attack Wang Shichong. If Hedong can't resist the 100,000 Turkic army, the Turkic army plus Li Zhao's army will kill Guanzhong and threaten Chang'an. Su Dingfang suddenly felt the pressure on his body, he was very glad that Li Xin had transferred 30,000 troops, otherwise with 20,000 people in Hedong, he would not be able to resist the attack of the Turks at all.
"General Su doesn't have to worry, Lord Cen has persuaded Xianghou to lead 70,000 troops to support the general, and Hedong must be foolproof." Zhang Hu hurriedly told Cen Wenwen how to persuade Dou Hongxian.
"With this army of 70,000, we are enough to keep the Turks under the city of Hedong." Duan Decao couldn't help but sigh: "I have heard for a long time that there are two more martial arts halls walking in the court. This Cen text was originally Xiao Miao's subordinate, and the prime minister used him, originally thinking that it was only used to appease the south, but he didn't expect that this person still had some talent. It can be said that the red line of the sinus is used to descend. ”
"That's the prime minister knows how to make good use of people." Su Dingfang also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, to be honest, the pressure on him from the 100,000 Turkic army was very great, twice as much as his own army, and he was also a Turkic who was familiar with the tactics of the Han people, so it was even more powerful.
"A top priority. It is to evacuate the common people of Hedong, the Turks are fierce and brutal, and the troops are under the city of Hedong, if they cannot attack for a long time. It will surely embarrass our people. Duan Decao said.
"Although it is a little late, there is no way, mobilize as many people as you can! Mr. Zhang Qian, I need the assistance of your Jinyiwei this time. Su Dingfang also knew that the matter was a little urgent. Although Zhang Hu came quickly, the Turks were also cavalry, and they must have arrived soon. Time is running out for Su Dingfang.
"The general is reassured. As long as the general gives an order, Jinyiwei will naturally obey. Zhang Hu said loudly.
"Okay." Su Dingfang nodded and said, "General Duan, then let's go our separate ways!" These civilians were ordered to either evacuate in the direction of the east of the river, or let him go towards Guanzhong, or enter the mountains, and absolutely not let the Turks catch them. ”
"Yes." Duan Decao answered.
In an instant, the fighting machine in Hedong was activated, and countless ordinary people left their homes with their families, or hid in Hedong City, or hid in the mountains, and some people went to Li Zhao through the Bird Mouse Valley, and the murderous reputation of the Turks was still very marketable in Hedong.
The situation in the east of the river soon spread to the Bird Mouse Valley, and Qu Tutong, the guard of the Bird Mouse Valley, looked at the people who entered under the pass, and his face was much gloomy. He didn't know if he should let these people in.
"Father, King Qi said that if there are Li Xin's secret agents here, how would it be good, so he didn't suggest letting these people enter the customs." Qu Tushou rushed over in the distance, his face was a little unsightly. At this moment, the defender of the Bird Mouse Valley is Qu Tutong on the surface, but ten miles behind the Bird Mouse Valley, the 30,000 elite army is already ready to go, and Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, is the leading general, in order to wait until the Turks and Su Dingfang are both defeated, rush out and completely occupy the east of the river.
"But these are Han Chinese." Qu Tutong has been a lot older recently, he looked at the people under the pass, his face was gloomy, and his heart was full of remorse, Hedong is the second hometown, he guarded there for several years, and finally, he abandoned Hedong and joined Li Zhao, although he was a prince of the country, but he was not so at ease in Hedong, in his opinion, the people of Hedong were his relatives, but now he turned away his relatives, and his heart was unspeakably uncomfortable.
"The 30,000 army is behind us, if these people all enter the Guanzhong, Li Xin will know our plan if he can't figure it out, and it makes sense for the King of Qi to do this." Qu Tushou felt the resentment in Qu Tutong's heart, and couldn't help but explain for Li Yuanji.
"Stupid, King Qi is stupid, and you are stupid too. Since these ordinary people have escaped, there are no more than two reasons, the first is that the Turks have been killed, and the second is that the people in the east of the river have been scattered. According to the itinerary of the Turks, there are at least three days left before they can enter Hedong, how can the people evacuate on a large scale at this time? Then there is only the second one, the Hedong side has already known about the arrival of the Turks, and it is best to prepare, and now it is useless to keep these out, Li Xin's subordinates are full of talents, I am afraid that we have already guessed that we still have actions behind our backs, and it is ridiculous that Li Yuanji still thinks that he is not exposed. Hehe, I think he just doesn't want to save these people, Li Xin's Jinyiwei is so powerful, if he wants to hide Jinyiwei, relying on Zhao Feng and those people is useless at all. ”
"Father wants to let these people in?" Qu Tushou said with some worry: "In case King Qi gets angry, what about the father?" "Because of Li Yuanji's ugly appearance, his nature has become different from others, brutal and cunning, and he is a character who will be revenged, if he knows that Qu Tutong has done this, I am afraid that he will find trouble with Qu Tutong.
"Hey!" Qu Tutong listened to the vicious slam on the battlements of the city wall, and said: "Li Tang loves the people, and the people yearn for it, but now we are turning the people away, who will support me Li Zhao in the future, after I Li Zhao enters Hedong one day, he will definitely turn Hedong into a second Hebei." ”
"General Qu Tu, what's wrong with Hebei? Hebei or is it not under the rule of Great Zhao? A cold voice came, but I saw a few people coming slowly in the distance, and the person at the head was really Li Yuanji, the king of Qi.
"His Royal Highness the King of Qi, we are about to capture Hedong, these people are the emperor's people, we can't let them outside the pass! The last general thought that it would be better to put them into the city, so that it would be convenient for us to supervise them. Qu Tutong arched his hand towards Li Yuanji and said.
"Are you sure there are no brocade guards in there?" Li Yuanji looked at the countless ordinary people under the city with gloomy faces, and said: "These people are Li Xin's people, when we left Hedong, they should have left with us, but they were willing to follow Li Xin, and they have done things for Li Xin all these years, that is, life and death are in Li Xin's hands, and they have nothing to do with us." General Qu Tu, since he is Li Xin's people, is our enemy. Since it is an enemy, use the enemy's methods against them. Come on, the archers prepare. ”
"King Qi, no, since they came to the Bird Mouse Valley, it means that their hearts are towards my Da Zhao, one of them is the people of the Huo Yi Zhai family and the Fan family, they are a family, and they have provided a lot of information for the two Da Zhao over the years, now, they give up their families to vote, how can we accept them?"
"Haoqiang family?" Li Yuanji's eyes lit up, and he looked towards the city, and sure enough, he saw two centaurs with dense boxes and a lot of carriages, nodded suddenly, and said, "In this case, these two families can come in, and the others will be killed." As he spoke, he beckoned your lieutenant next to him and whispered a few words in his ear. The general suddenly had a smile on his face, and he went down the city wall with a smile.
After half a ring, I saw the city gate open, a team of cavalry roared out, first rushed into the distance, just when Qu Tutong was surprised, these cavalry turned their horses' heads and roared back, instantly broke into the crowd, drew a long knife, and slashed at these people, and screamed again and again for a while. Why didn't these ordinary people think that Li Zhao's butcher's knife was actually aimed at him, and he was caught off guard for a while, and he was cut down to the ground one after another, even the people of the Zhai and Fan families were also cut down.
"King Qi, you, what are you doing here?" Qu Tutong said loudly: "Quick, stop." ”
"Old general, they are all rebellious, follow Li Xin's rebellion, we are naturally a means of rebellion to deal with rebellion, since it is a rebellion, we should know the fate of rebellion." Li Yuanji's face was gloomy, looking down, the corners of his mouth showed a hideous look, his eyes flashed with excitement, he saw some gold and silver treasures in front of him, and more than a dozen beauties, these will be his own. This is also one of the purposes for which he wants to kill these people.
"King Qi, you, you are breaking the foundation of my Great Zhao." Qu Tutong burst into tears and couldn't help but kneel on the city wall. And at the city wall, cursing, crying, and begging for mercy poured up, unspeakably miserable. (To be continued......)
