Chapter 936: Fenced
"Obey!"
The person who came solemnly agreed, and continued: "Seeing that the situation was unstoppable, and fearing that it would cause casualties, General Shan Daozhen ordered the army to get out of the way, let it go out of the city, and sent people to intercept it left and right, and drove the people to the south so as not to escape, and sent another cavalry to the south twenty miles to a valley to ambush. β
"Shan Dao really guards the West Gate?"
Qin Huaidao smiled, he wasn't worried that the enemy could really escape, where could he escape in the middle of the night? What if you do escape? Kill again in the next day, and said with a smile: "The poor are unstoppable, let them escape, and wait for the momentum to leak, and then surround and kill, this arrangement is very reasonable, continue." β
"Obey!"
The other party continued: "General Xu asked An Guogong to lead the cavalry to cover the killing, and brought the remaining two divisions of General Shan Daozhen to chase and kill, worried that the King of Han would misunderstand, so he asked his subordinates to report." β
"Go back and tell the British Duke that this king has said that if he does not interfere in tonight's battle, he will never interfere again, let him let go and kill."
"Obey!" The other party hurriedly went.
Qin Huaidao smiled: "Shan Dao is true, it's a bit interesting, this person has a flexible playing style, responds properly, is a rare talent, can the imperial court have a general with the surname Shan?" As he spoke, he looked at Luo Wu.
Luo Wu thought about it carefully and said, "It doesn't seem to be." β
"Is this single way really an ordinary person killed from the bottom?"
Qin Huaidao was a little puzzled, the literacy rate of ordinary people was extremely low, they basically didn't go to school, they didn't have money to practice martial arts, and they couldn't help but ask: "No, it's not easy for people to live, they can't read, they can't get in touch with the art of war, and they don't have the opportunity to practice martial arts. β
The Hanmen are not ordinary people, but down-and-out aristocratic families, and their ancestors have been noble, such as Xue Rengui.
Luo Wu shook his head, unable to figure it out.
"I don't want to, after the war, I will ask the British public to find out, how is the reorganization of the troops?" Qin Huaidao was too lazy to bother guessing, since Xu Shiji dared to use it, it showed that he was reliable.
β¦β¦
South of Qinzhou City, ten miles.
The cavalry led by An Guogong was fast, catching up with the infantry who fled out of the city, and there were also large armies on both sides driving away those who tried to escape.
There were too many people who surrendered, but An Guogong didn't care, and continued to chase and kill with his own people, compared with the big fish, these little Luo Luo of the queen of the palace is not surprising.
Racing all the way, a valley appeared in front of him, hazy and hazy, but the shouts of killing shook the sky.
"Haha, kill it, rush-"
An Guogong yelled excitedly, desperately beating his horse and charging.
The soldiers also howled excitedly, and their swords were brandished, reflecting fiercely in the moonlight.
Soon, everyone saw the two troops strangled together, and the soldiers rushed up on horseback, holding their sabers high and slashing without hesitation, with the identification method of tying a white cloth around their necks, so they didn't have to worry about cutting wrong.
On the other hand, the defenders are different, the moonlight is hazy, the visibility is not high, it is difficult to distinguish between friend and foe, and it is easy to accidentally injure their own people.
Where can the defenders of Qinzhou stop it?
"Surrender or kill!" I don't know who shouted.
More people chimed in, and the sound grew louder and louder, shaking the night sky.
The people of An Guogong are all grassland aliens, most of them don't understand Tang language, they can't shout, they concentrate on slashing and killing, as long as they hold weapons and there is no white cloth around their necks, they rush up and cut down, and they are extremely fierce.
Not long after, An Guogong led people to kill a pair of people, led the army to turn around, turned back, and saw that countless people had lost their weapons and squatted on the ground begging for mercy, and suddenly lost interest, and shouted: "Erlang, your eyes are wider, looking for big fish, that's a great achievement." β
"Hahaha, understood!" Everyone agreed and scattered to search.
"But An Guogong?"
A warfighter rushed over and saluted with his fists clenched.
An Guogong knew each other and asked rhetorically: "Exactly, can there be a person who escapes?" β
"I haven't seen anyone get away."
"That's good, fence it off, and wait until dawn to find it slowly." An Guogong immediately ordered.
An Guogong is the deputy commander of the army, and his rank is high enough, this general did not dare to object, and hurriedly commanded his people to disperse around, blocking all routes in an encirclement manner, and not giving anyone a chance to escape.
If you really get away with one person, you will lose the face of the entire army, and An Guogong will not dare to be careless, and let his people participate in the encirclement, and he will not care about looking for big fish.
Seeing that the general trend had gone, the defending troops all squatted on the ground and waited for processing, and no one dared to mess around.
Not long after, Xu Shiji led his troops to arrive, and when he saw that everyone was caught in the net, he was very relieved, and was about to order the screening of the captives and find the big fish, and several of the captives came forward, one by one wearing armor, obviously not low.
"Protect the general." The guards were startled and quickly put on alert.
Shan Daozhen stepped forward and asked, "Stop the comer, report your name." β
The people stopped, and one of them shouted: "Lu Chenghe, the general manager of the Western Expedition and the governor of Qinzhou, let General Xu Shiji come over to answer." β
"Presumptuous, the general of the defeated army, what qualifications do you have to be arrogant, come to people, and disarm them." Shan Daozhen scolded angrily.
Immediately, someone rushed up and took the weapons of these men away.
Xu Shiji took a few steps forward, stared at one of them and said, "You are Lu Chenghe?" But that's it. β
"General Xu is famous, and it is indeed better to congratulate, thank you and obey!"
The other party saluted solemnly, but he was also modest, but after a change of words, he continued: "This official was born in the Lu family, the Lu family is a thousand-year-old family, with a prominent reputation, countless protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials, and a rich party, even if the saint does not dare to slack off, it is better to open the net, and the official who comes to Japan will have a good reward." β
"The Lu family, one of the five surnames and seven hopes, the saint is indeed jealous, but what about the King of Han?" Xu Shiji sneered.
The other party's face froze and he didn't answer.
The five surnames and seven wangs were almost all uprooted by Qin Huaidao, and everyone knows that even the Lu family in Chang'an was killed by Qin Huaidao, and suffered heavy losses.
Xu Shiji's words were regarded as poking the other party's lung tubes, and he was uncomfortable in one breath.
In the end, he was from a big family, and he reacted quickly, and asked in a cold voice: "The general is a minister of the imperial court, and now he is rebelling with the King of Han, so he is not afraid of leaving a reputation for eternity?" β
"From the moment when the court wants to kill General Ben, General Ben is no longer a minister of the court, as for the infamy through the ages, General Ben is not worried, the King of Han is sending people to write a book and say, to promote our prestige, the eternal legend, but you, will be put on the pillar of shame, spurned from generation to generation."
"What?" The other party's face changed drastically.
The reason why the family can't inherit it is that in addition to monopolizing the fields, mastering a large number of wealth, knowledge books, and monopolizing the channels for being officials, there is also a very important means, that is, to grasp public opinion, to manipulate public opinion, who is good, what is bad, what is traitorous, and who is loyal, all of which are the final say of the family.
The sons of heaven in all dynasties were afraid and tried to coax them, so as not to speak ill of themselves.
What does the Maison have to say?
In the final analysis, it is still wealth, you can spend a lot of money to write a book, you can find a storyteller to spread it everywhere, and if you say too much, the black can become white, and the people have no channels to get information, so it is not how to say it or how to listen to it.
As for the imperial court newspaper, it can spread some information, but it is written by people in the hands of the family, and the emperor cannot write it himself, and the circulation is limited, and the people cannot reach it.
Now that Qin Huaidao wants to write a book and speak and grasp public opinion, how can he not make people afraid?
"Noβ"
"How could he?"
He ...... How so? β
The other party was completely panicked, chaotic, and scared!
