Chapter 222: Iron-Blooded Law Enforcement
Bazhou was originally called Huangzhou, and the name was changed by Ge Tianba, the grandfather of the previous dynasty, because it was the birthplace of Ge Tianba, and after Ge Tianba became the emperor, he returned to Huangzhou once, but when he heard the word Huang, he felt uncomfortable, after all, Huang is yellow, what's the matter, the world of the old Ge family wants to be yellow!
Therefore, Ge Tianba directly renamed Huangzhou as Bazhou, and used the last word of Ge Tianba to name it. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
And Shen Mufeng has been eyeing Bazhou for a day or two, there used to be a lot of things, and he couldn't take care of it, but now it's different, the two states are strong and strong, where will he let go of this fat sheep.
With a decision, Shen Mufeng immediately mobilized 30,000 troops of the Second Army, and ordered to start early the next morning, marching 240 miles in less than two days, and appeared directly under the city of Bazhou.
And seeing the 30,000 troops arriving in Bazhou, the governor of Bazhou was immediately dumbfounded, he didn't get the news at all before, and King Shen Yan said that he would kill him.
In fact, at the same time as Shen Mufeng gave the order, he began to close the news on the same day, blocking the traffic arteries of Bazhou, only allowing entry but not exit, and the army arrived in Bazhou in two days, which was the normal marching speed for the army under Shen Mufeng.
Jian Hancheng, the governor of Bazhou, spent the night in anxiety, but he still couldn't make a choice, and he couldn't hide the matter from Jian Hancheng, an official of Jian Hancheng's level.
Zuo Tian covered the sky in the court and controlled nearly two million troops in Great Xia, in addition to the 750,000 troops stationed in the five states, there were millions of troops that could be mobilized, and it was no secret that King Shen Yan only had 200,000 troops in his hands.
And the relationship between the two is already like fire and water, Zuo Tian has sent people to assassinate Emperor Xia Yuan many times, obviously wanting to get rid of Xia Yuan, and then justifiably crusade against Wanping Pinglan.
However, King Shen Yan ran the two states like an iron bucket, and several assassinations lost his troops, so the two were in a stalemate.
So the problem is, the strength is obviously inferior to that of King Shen Yama, and the war is fought with silver, even if King Shen Yama has outstanding combat power, but in the face of a million army, the best result is a tug of war, and even if it is a tug of war, Jian Hancheng does not think that King Shen Yama can survive to the end.
Therefore, Jian Hancheng originally intended not to take refuge in King Shen Yan, but the problem is that King Shen Yan personally recruited and held the holy decree of Emperor Xia Yuan, and if he disobeyed the holy order, he would be a chaotic minister and thief!
"Master, if you want me to say that we might as well stretch him and send someone to Beijing to report the news, and we still have 20,000 people in our hands!
It was Jian Hancheng's concubine Lanxiang who spoke, but if she could say this, it was obviously not a fuel-efficient lamp.
And Jian Hancheng didn't hear the sound outside the strings, but felt that it was very reasonable, and also, after being nervous all night, it can be seen that Jian Hancheng is also an indecisive character.
Lan Xiang's words spoke to his heart, as soon as he came, he felt that Wan Ping Pinglan had no chance of winning, and following them was a dead end.
Secondly, he invited the court, if there is anything to be done by the court, he is just the governor of Bazhou, and he is ordered by the court, even if it is his turn.
Thinking of this, Jian Hancheng hugged the beautiful young woman, and her mouth full of yellow teeth covered the young woman's small mouth fiercely, then patted the young woman's buttocks, and ran out with an excited face.
After Jian Hancheng left, the young woman took a sip, a look of disgust flashed in her eyes, and the stench in her mouth was really smoky.
At ten o'clock at noon, Shen Mufeng ordered someone to shout, Jian Hancheng, under the protection of a group of guards, looked at the 30,000 army below, and the defenders on the city either looked complicated or looked at the Wanping army under the city with disdain.
Shen Mufeng still didn't understand Jian Hancheng's choice, and immediately gave an order: "Aim the cannon at the gate for me, fuck it!"
It is the sappers who are in charge of the artillery, after all, the number of cannons is not much, only 20 have been built in the past three years, 10 for each of the two armies, and now only 5 have been brought out.
And five cannons were obviously not enough for the infantry, so they were allocated to the sappers.
Under Shen Mufeng's order, five cannons were aimed at the city wall, and in a roar, five solid cannonballs blasted towards the city gate, and after five bangs, two cannonballs hit the city gate, directly blasting out two large holes, and there were cracks around the holes.
And the cannonball that fell on the city wall suddenly smashed three holes in the city wall, and Jian Hancheng, who was hiding in the city gate tower and watching the army of King Shen Yan, was immediately stunned, and he could even feel the shaking of the city wall.
"Kai, Lord Qiqi, we, our city gates, are about to be broken, come here, our city gates will be over!"
The herald's face was pale, and his words were trembling, obviously he didn't expect the weapons in the other party's hands to be so sharp, this has not yet attacked the city, the city gate was blasted out of two big holes, the other party is 30,000 people, and there are only 15,000 people on his side, once the city gate is breached, it is not a dead end.
In the hearts of the soldiers, they all like to defend the city, after all, defending the city is not like fighting on the battlefield, the mortality rate is too high, if it is defending the city, the besieging side is definitely the losing side.
Take Bazhou as an example, many defenders on the city gate, why do they look at the soldiers of King Shen Yan with a look of ridicule, it is precisely because they are the side defending the city, under normal circumstances, the other party is to send 50,000 people, or even 100,000 people, and it is impossible to break through Bazhou City in a short time.
However, at this time, their faces were already white, once the city gate was broken, their side would definitely lose, and there was only a dead end waiting for them.
Hearing the words of the herald, Jian Hancheng's face turned even whiter, and he hurriedly went down the city gate tower, looking at the city gate where the two big holes were bombed, Jian Hancheng jumped up directly and shouted: "Quick, move the sand and gravel, don't let the other party attack in!"
When the Bazhou defenders kept carrying sand and gravel in an attempt to block the holes in the city gate, Shen Mufeng had already ordered to continue to bombard the city gate, this time after calibration, all five solid lead bullets hit, and then look at the city gate, it was not broken two holes, it was directly shattered.
Five cannonballs passed through the city gate, and flew forward unabatedly, just hitting a few soldiers carrying sand and stones, this solid lead bullet hit people, it was definitely nine deaths, blood was spilled, and the death was unbearable.
And Jian Hancheng, who was standing on the side and commanding, was so frightened that he sat directly on the ground, and a stinking hot current flowed down the crotch of his pants, especially when he saw the intestines hanging on his shoulder, Jian Hancheng was directly frightened crazy.
The battle of Bazhou is a bit funny and a little ridiculous, because Jian Hancheng is crazy, and the soldiers of Bazhou have no intention of resisting, and then look at the black pressure Wanping Army outside, and suddenly run away, and even Bazhou Zhou Wei ran away.
A big war was inexplicably resolved invisibly, Shen Mufeng didn't know why this happened, he thought that he would fight for a day or two! But after five or six rounds of cannons, all the problems were solved, you said that it was magical.
"Tsk, it seems that this cannon really needs to be studied and studied!"
The influx of the army brought Bazhou City under control in less than an hour, and the Southwest Wanping Army did not disturb the people, but those who dared to take the opportunity to make trouble were all shot and killed, and Shen Mufeng entered the Bazhou Prefecture and waited for the secret door of Bazhou.
Because he wants to completely control Bazhou, it is not good to deter the younger generation, and it will also bring endless trouble to the future governance of Bazhou.
On the second day of the invasion of Bazhou, people were arrested everywhere in the city, but to the surprise of the common people, they were all hooligans and bullies in the past, villains who disregarded human life, and those officials who bullied men and women.
The city gate was sealed, and after a morning of arrest, the four urban districts of Bazhou City were searched in detail by the black-clothed soldiers, checked the list sent by the secret door, and arrested them immediately once they were confirmed, and those who resisted were killed on the spot.
By noon, more than 1,800 people had been arrested and more than 400 had been shot.
These people are all evildoers, and they were almost wiped out by Shen Mufeng, of course, it is impossible not to miss the fish, but Shen Mufeng believes that these people are estimated to be more well-behaved than good babies in the future.
Then he ordered these 1,837 people to be shot collectively in front of the gate of the state government.
More than 1,800 people were shot at once, and the scene was called a large, 50 people in a row, and after the sound of gunfire in unison, 50 people fell in response, and then one row after another died under the guns of the black-clothed soldiers, and the common people were dumbfounded.
But more is to relieve hatred, Bazhou City is not too big, only less than 500,000 people, counting the counties and towns under the rule of the state city, it is only 700,000 people.
Because it is the intersection of Hezhou Wanping, there are many merchants, and it can be said that the wealth of Bazhou is also counted in Daxia, and the reason why Shen Mufeng won Bazhou first is precisely because of this.
Shen Mufeng's iron-blooded killing did not bring fear to the common people, after all, the situation in Wanping Pinglan was also the first to be understood by Bazhou.
Although the two places are not as rich as Bazhou, but the life of the people of the two states is much stronger than that of the people of Bazhou, and the real rich people in Bazhou are officials, businessmen, and bullies who do all kinds of evil, and the lives of the common people are still very difficult.
So when Shen Mufeng arrived in Bazhou, for ordinary people, they were more happy, because the people knew in their hearts that when they pointed to those officials in Bazhou, they could only be oppressed. (To be continued.) )
