The battle ended quickly.

Seeing that the situation was under control, Xue Rengui secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it was best not to fight, they were all Tang people, it was a pity to kill them, he came to An Yuanshou and said in a cold voice: "Aren't you going to be loyal to the imperial court?" Give you a chance to be loyal and kill yourself to full fame. ”

Who really wants to die if they can live?

An Yuanshou pulled out his sword and put it across his neck, but hesitated, but after thinking about it, his family was in Luoyang, if he didn't die, he was afraid that he would be implicated, anyway, his back injury was serious, and he wouldn't live long, so it was better to die.

Suicide is the only way and the best option.

Thinking of this, An Yuanshou looked at Xue Rengui: "Thank you for the completion of the general, can you tell me the name?" ”

"Hedong Jiangzhou Xue's, famous gifts, the word benevolence."

"It turned out to be the righteous brother of the King of Han, the undefeated god of war in the Western Regions, who died at your hands, not wronged, please don't involve the clansmen." An Yuanshou put the Buddha to get some kind of relief, smiled, and exerted force in his hands.

"Poof!"

The struggling saber cut through the veins of the neck, and the whole person was pulled to the bones and collapsed to the ground.

"Don't worry, King Han is benevolent and righteous, and will not harm the innocent, but it's a pity that you have the ability, you followed the saint left and right back then, and your reputation was great, and the saint also treated you well, but now you are loyal to the murderer of the saint, your loyalty is really ...... I don't know what to say, it's stupid. Xue Rengui shook his head, very speechless.

"I also have a hard time."

An Yuanshou's weak voice sounded, and he soon lost his life.

Xue Rengui was not interested in his distress, and looked at the head of the guard regiment and admonished: "Although this person is stupid, he is also a man, give the body to his family, if he has no family, find a place to bury him." ”

"Understood." The other party clenched his fists and took his life.

Xue Rengui looked at the surrendering army again, and shouted loudly: "All the surrendering troops and corpses are all brought back to the camp, and they are not allowed to take half a step, waiting for the drop, if there is anyone who disobeys, there will be no forgiveness!" The first division is in charge of guarding, take it away. ”

"Obey." The commander of the first division replied loudly.

"Order the commander of the second division, martial law in the whole city, treat the wounded, organize the people to cook food and send it out of the city, and do not force the food to buy and sell, do not kill innocents indiscriminately, and do not loot property, so as to damage the reputation of our army. Xue Rengui looked at the person next to him and admonished.

"Obey!" The other party didn't dare to be careless, so he hurried to give the order.

Xue Rengui looked at the other person again and advised: "The guard regiment will leave one battalion, and the others will occupy the Governor's Mansion, clear the remnants, seal up all the warehouses, count the supplies, and remember, do not disturb the family." ”

"Obey!" The other party hurriedly responded.

Xue Rengui gave several orders in one breath, and then returned the same way with a battalion of guards.

When he came to the city gate, he saw Luo Wu chatting with several subordinates, walked up quickly, and said with a smile: "Luo Wu, your kid's ability is getting better and better, and only ten people can actually guard the city gate, which is amazing." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare!" Luo Wu hurriedly returned the salute with his fists, not daring to hold it up.

"You're waiting for me, aren't you? Let's go, go to the King of Han! ”

"It's good!"

Luo Wu agreed, and found an ownerless war horse to ride.

The group marched out of the city, rushed forward, and soon disappeared into the moonlight.

disappeared together, and several carrier pigeons, taking off from different corners of the city, carrying the news of the destruction of Qizhou City.

……

Outside the city of Qinzhou, the Chinese military tent.

Xu Shiji sat on the head, there was a map on the eucalyptus, the oil lamp next to it was beating, flickering with a dim light, the moonlight outside the window was like water, a bamboo tree swayed with the wind, but the reflection fell in the hall, shaking the moonlight, quiet, peaceful and revealing a bit of Zen.

Not long after, An Guogong hurriedly came in, hugged his fists and said, "British Gong, are you looking for me?" ”

"Come on, sit down and talk."

Xu Shiji got up with the map, bypassed the eucalyptus, and walked down the steps.

The two sat down next to each other, there was a small coffee table in the middle, Xu Shiji spread the map on the small coffee table, and brought an oil lamp to light it next to it, pointed to Qizhou and said: "An Guogong, calculate the time, the army of the King of Han can arrive in Qizhou tonight, if you launch an attack tomorrow, with the combat strength of the Hanzhou army, you can take it in one day at most." ”

"This is true, Yuanzhou and Longzhou will be taken in half a day, and Qizhou will have an army of 60,000, but the city still can't stop the pace of the Hanzhou army, and one day is enough at most." An Guogong agreed.

Suddenly thinking of something, An Guogong added: "British Gong, it seems that our generation is old!" ”

"yes, old."

Xu Shiji said with emotion: "Although I don't want to admit it, but it is a fact, the Han King's methods are incredible, and there are traces of crossbows and Qin, but explosives and shells have never been seen in previous dynasties, and the city that gave us a headache in the past is useless, the way of fighting has changed, and the way of fighting has naturally changed, you and I are not outdated." ”

"The city of Qinzhou is strong, and if we attack by our means, the loss will definitely not be less than 30,000, you say, after the King of Han comes, how many soldiers and horses will be lost if he takes Qinzhou?"

Xu Shiji thought for a while, shook his head and said: "It's hard to estimate, Qinzhou has 100,000 soldiers and horses in the imperial court, sufficient grain and grass, and a large number of supplies, you and I may not be able to take 30,000 losses, this is also the reason why the King of Han strictly ordered our army to surround and not fight, as for the methods of the King of Han, the old man really can't guess." ”

"Also, you and I have never seen the combat effectiveness of the army around King Han, it is difficult to make a judgment, but as long as the city gate is blown open and the army is killed, the maximum loss is 20,000, and our army can break the city.

"Of course not."

Xu Shiji pointed to the map and said: "Qizhou is not far from Qinzhou, if it is taken tomorrow, the King of Han will lead his troops to join the day after tomorrow, do we have to make some preparations." ”

"What do you mean?" A look of doubt flashed in his eyes.

"Assault!"

"Harassment?"

Lost Sili was surprised, stared at the map for a moment, and said, "You mean that from now on, you will continue to attack the defenders in the city, not giving them time to rest, and consuming their body and energy?" ”

"That's right, it's a pity that there is a river in the city, and it can't be done to clear the wilderness, so keep attacking and harassing, making them nervous, tense, and not daring to relax, and the energy will inevitably run out after a long time, and when the King of Han arrives, the general attack can reduce a lot of casualties, and it is not a day for you and I to besiege Qinzhou, and it is impossible to do nothing."

"Also, if you don't do anything, it will seem that you and I are helpless and incompetent, how can you attack?" Stubborn thinking power promised with a mouth, as a military general, stubborn thinking power is not far behind, and he has fallen into prestige.

"The army is divided into three, taking turns to attack, mainly archers, arranging people to cover with shields, reducing casualties, casualties are large, you and I have no way to explain to the King of Han, in addition, be prepared to keep the cavalry on standby to prevent the city from really rushing out to fight."

After thinking about it, he nodded and agreed, "Leave it to me to ride a horse." ”

Xu Shiji had this intention, and said with a smile: "Then there will be labor, and the sheep attack will be launched in half an hour." ”

"Okay, old man, I'll go and prepare."

Stubbornly lost his thinking and said that he left in a hurry.

Xu Shiji walked out of the Zhongjun tent, looked at the quiet Qinzhou City in the distance, it was pitch black, his eyes became sharp, and he suddenly shouted: "Come on, beat the drums and gather the generals!" ”

"Dongdong, Dongdong!"
