Chapter 145: Bloody Battle in Yangzhou (1)
Today, the entire Linjiang County is completely boiling.
Five hundred dragon and tiger elites, armed with all kinds of arms and weapons, escorted more than 300 remnants of Dayue, and slowly marched along the main street of Linjiang County.
Wherever the procession passed, on both sides of the street, crowds of onlookers were standing.
Like some Linjiang people who didn't have time to go out, under the mutual admonition of a group of neighbors, they put down what they were doing and crowded the streets, all wanting to see the fate of those hateful Dayue people who were defeated and subdued.
All of a sudden, in the entire county, the crowd was surging and the public was angry.
In the face of those Dayue people who wore bracelets and anklets, all the people roared and scolded with red eyes.
What's more, he directly took out the gravel and mud blocks, and smashed them on those Dayue people like raindrops, and smashed these Dayue people screaming again and again, with a blue nose and swollen face.
Seeing this scene, Nie Zheng and other dragon and tiger leaders who were walking in front of the team were secretly shaking their heads and sighing.
Xindao, how many angry and resentful evil things have these Dayue natives who have invaded the land of the Han people to do to the local Han people, otherwise, they will definitely not let these ordinary people with simple nature, all of them launch bursts of angry scolding and roaring at those Dayue people like unjust ghosts collecting debts.
In fact, Nie Zheng and the others had never seen all kinds of evil deeds of these Dayue soldiers in Linjiang County in the past.
Before Nie Zheng's team arrived, these Dayue soldiers often wantonly insulted and beat the local residents and people in the city, and sometimes saw some Han women who were quite beautiful, and went directly to molest and insult them, and some arrogant and rampant Dayue soldiers often used alcohol to directly break into local houses, and raped their wives and daughters-in-law in front of their husbands and in-laws.
In the face of the atrocities committed by these Dayue soldiers, the indigenous lords who ruled the county often turned a blind eye and did things perfunctorily.
In short, after this group of Dayue people occupied the land of the Han people, they did not treat the Han people as human beings at all, and they simply did all kinds of evil.
In the past, these Han people, forced by the obscenity of the Dayue people, dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, but today, these Dayue people in Linjiang City, their end will soon come.
When the time comes, all the sins they have committed in Linjiang City will have to be paid for with their blood.
After escorting this group of Dayue people and touring the city, it completely aroused the anger and resentment that had been pent up in the hearts of all the local people for many years.
At the same time, when hundreds of people were surging against those Dayue people, bursting into denunciations and angry scolding, more was the support and applause of the local people for Nie Zheng's team.
Obviously, Nie Zheng escorted the Dayue people to parade through the streets, so that all the people in the city clapped their hands and cheered!
From today onwards, Nie Zheng's team will completely establish absolute prestige in Linjiang County.
At that time, as long as Nie Zheng orders his men and horses to continue to maintain a disciplined attitude in the next few days, it is estimated that it will not be long before the local people will become more and more welcoming and loving to their team.
Because, as long as the Han people govern the Han people, as long as they don't mess around, they are more likely to be accepted and supported by the masses, which is an innate racial advantage, Nie Zheng knows it very well in his heart.
In the entire Great Song Dynasty, there was not a single Han Chinese who liked to be ruled by foreign races.
Even if those foreigners, no matter how strict the military discipline is, they have no offense against the Han people, but these Han people are always willing to get close to the Han people.
Basically, every race is the same, very xenophobic, and they all have a very strong sense of national honor, especially like these Han people living in the south, their xenophobia is even stronger.
Although the Han people in the south are not as strong and martial as the Han people in the north, the blood in the bones of the Han people in the south is not much less than that of the northerners.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the scorching sun hung high.
Outside the north city gate, on an empty field, three hundred and thirty-five Yue people, all of whom were beaten to their knees viciously by a group of dragon and tiger elites.
At the same time, three hundred and thirty-five long knives hung high above the heads of these Dayue people.
The snow-white and sharp cold blade, under the light of the sun, flashed with bursts of cold light.
At this moment, all the swordsmen stood on the spot expressionlessly, with a cold light flashing in their eyes, as long as Nie Zheng gave an order, they would not hesitate to kill these Dayue Wai Kou on the spot.
Around the execution ground, Xu Shijie led 500 men and horses to lay a long cordon.
Outside the cordon, there were thousands of Linjiang people, and at the same time, there were a large number of people in Linjiang City, who rushed to the north gate when they heard the wind.
Today, everyone wants to see with their own eyes the fate of these Da Yue people who have done all kinds of evil, and they have been beheaded and ambushed.
At this moment, Nie Zheng stood on top of the city tower, looked up at the sun in the sky, and immediately a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he burst into a loud shout, "The hour has come, slash!" ”
At the sound of an order, hundreds of executioners with grim expressions suddenly ripped open their arms and roared angrily, and raised the long knives in their hands with cold light flickering high above their heads.
Call!!!
In an instant, hundreds of cold blades pierced the sky with great speed, and the whistling sword wind of the bearer sounded.
All of a sudden, the knife fell, and blood splattered.
Hundreds of Dayue Waiko who knelt on the ground had their heads cut off to the ground.
All of a sudden, hundreds of streams of blood rushed to the sky, sprinkling the fields outside the northern city into red.
Just after this group of Dayue people was beheaded by Nie Zheng's order, on the spot, all the ordinary people who came to watch broke out into a burst of earth-shattering cheers.
"Good!"
"Good!"
"Good kill!!"
"Long live Nie Shuai, long live the Dragon and Tiger Righteous Master!!"
Everyone at the scene was enthusiastic and clapping!
…………
Outside the northern city of Linjiang County, in front of the eyes of hundreds of people in the city, Nie Zheng killed all the arrested Dayue Waikou on the spot, including the indigenous master who ruled Linjiang County, and it was impossible to escape the fate of falling to the ground.
If you dare to invade the land of my Han people, this is the end!
After killing all the Dayue foreign invaders, taking advantage of the hot emotions of the people at the scene, Nie Zheng immediately seized this great opportunity and performed a passionate speech.
Standing on top of the city tower, he began to complain angrily about how these Dayue foreign criminals invaded the county territory of the Han people, how brutal and barbaric they were, and how they oppressed and ravaged the Han people...... did his best to preach all the crimes committed by the Dayue Wai Gang in the past.
The crowd at the scene was filled with righteous indignation and surging emotions.
In a word, Nie Zheng's purpose in doing this is to make the people in Linjiang County and his own army and people unite and hate the same enemy.
Only in this way can he deal with those Dayue natives in the future, so that he can worry about the future.
In this way, after Nie Zheng gave an impassioned speech to the people of Linjiang below for more than ten minutes, he successfully achieved the effect he wanted.
After finishing the matter, Nie Zheng left the Beicheng Tower and returned to the county government under the escort of more than a dozen leaders.
And the people of Linjiang who gathered inside and outside the city gate also dispersed one after another.
Before I knew it, three days had passed.
In these three days, Jia Xiufang gave full play to his expertise in governing and reassuring the people, and governed the entire Linjiang County in an orderly manner, which was happy and harmonious.
Nie Zheng hasn't been idle much in the past few days.
Every day, he gathered in the study of the county government with a group of leaders and leaders to discuss the plan and details of the attack on Yangzhou City.
As early as the day after Nie Zheng occupied Linjiang County, he sent the three Chen Shou brothers, with dozens of agile spies, to the road in advance and quietly sneaked to the vicinity of Yangzhou City, more than 200 miles away, to spy on the enemy and collect intelligence.
According to the information they secretly transmitted back, there are many soldiers and horses in the city of Nayangzhou, and the city is high and well-defended, which is extremely difficult to attack.
Chen Shou also sent back a special secret letter to Nie Zheng.
In that secret letter, Chen Shou told Nie Zheng that on the day that the Dragon and Tiger army captured Linjiang County, Yangzhou City, which was more than 200 miles away, had begun to close its doors and lock the city. According to their covert observations, in the past few days, a steady stream of Da Viet troops has begun to be stationed inside and outside the city in batches. At the same time, Chen Shou also reminded that the surroundings of Yangzhou City were a little weird.
They couldn't say where the weird place was.
Because, after Yangzhou City closed the door and locked the city, within ten miles from the city defense, all the farmers and people were expelled and emptied, and at the same time, during the day, the city would send more than a dozen teams of Dayue exploration horses, patrolling and visiting outside the city day and night, among those Dayue exploration horses, there was no shortage of foreign warrior masters.
Due to the heavily guarded defense of Yangzhou, Chen Shou and the others did not dare to approach the city for more than twenty miles during the day.
They often have to hide until the sun goes down, and in the dead of night, they carefully sneak around the city.
Although they could take advantage of the night to hide at night, they could not get too close to the city, and could only dive five miles away at most, because the closer they were to the city defense, the more Daiyue warriors would hide in the shadows, and they would be easily discovered by the enemy.
After reading the secret letter sent by Chen Shou, Nie Zheng also secretly felt that something was abnormal.
Judging by the situation in Yangzhou, it is estimated that the people of Dayue have already learned of the arrival of Nie Zheng's team.
Especially in the big battle on the north bank of the Yuan River, almost the 10,000 river defense troops deployed on the north bank of Dayue were wiped out, and the water monkeys used to block the river were also unheard.
Obviously, Nie Zheng's thunderous forced crossing of the river aroused the vigilance of the entire Dayue people who had invaded Annan County.
The reason why they did not send a large army to recapture Linjiang County was probably because they couldn't figure out the details of Nie Zheng, and at the same time, they were also afraid of the arms and weapons that Nie Zheng's team had.
Before figuring out the reality of Nie Zheng's team, the group of Da Yue people stationed in Yangzhou City probably wouldn't be in danger easily.
At the same time, according to Nie Zheng's guess, he had occupied Linjiang County for several days, and he had beheaded all the Dayue people in the city.
It is estimated that this news has already spread to Yangzhou City.
According to common sense, the Dayue people stationed in Yangzhou City should have sent a large army to counterattack, but they did not do so.
It can be seen that these Dayue people either have some kind of vicious counterattack plan, or they are waiting for reinforcements......
