Chapter 695: Can't Let It Go

His purpose in doing this was to reduce casualties on the one hand, and on the other hand, to attract the attention of all the soldiers in Beiyun City and attract all the troops.

In this way, Ramour's men were able to take the opportunity to open the gates of the West City.

There are still 30,000 troops who can enter directly from the West City Gate, and when the time comes, it is very likely that Beiyun City will be defeated without attacking.

In fact, it was the same as Li Yuanqing's prediction, and it was still non-stop from morning to late night at the main gate.

The defending generals above did not dare to slack off, and waited for a counterattack against Li Yuanqing's small attack.

Although the Great Zhou army did not directly press on it, making the pressure on Beiyun City a little less, the generals defending the city had a bad feeling in their hearts.

It is clear that a large army can rush up, why do you divide into small groups of people to attack?

With shields in hand, these men quietly walked forward, so that they could block the arrows fired from the castle tower and minimize casualties.

Not far from the city gate, several shields were split into a row, and a small trebuchet was lowered.

Another man threw the red-hot honeycomb coals into the trebuchet, and some of them smashed into the castle tower and smashed them on the ground.

The fiery red charcoal particles scattered in all directions, splashing on the people's bodies, scalding and screaming.

There are people who wear shoes and step on them, and their shoes, boots are burned.

"Hurry up and splash the water." The general defending the city immediately ordered everyone to extinguish the fire.

Wait until a few buckets of water are brought up to put out the fire, and the next one will come.

Several times, the soldiers defending the city carried a lot of water.

Seeing that the red bump was thrown at the city gate, he immediately quickly dodged it, and then splashed water.

Although the casualties were reduced, it also made everyone embarrassed.

It lasted a long time and was exhausting.

In the middle of the night, the defenders above responded with a strong spirit, and the attacks below still did not stop.

Outside the West City Gate, Li Yuanqing's deputy Liu Kui was outside the city with 30,000 soldiers and horses at this time.

There were only a few people guarding the city here, and there was no ambush of the Great Zhou army outside the city.

Lamour's men quietly climbed up the tower, causing chaos.

After Liu Kui got the military order, he saw the agitation on the city gate and knew that the time had come.

At the sound of an order, the attack began.

As more and more Beijon soldiers were killed, the gates were opened.

Most of the people from the west gate of Beiyun City went to support the south gate, and there were not many people left, and now they were attacked again. Immediately the city gates lit up with wolf smoke and called for help.

By the time the people above reacted, the city gates had been opened.

More and more Great Zhou soldiers entered through the city gate, and quickly climbed the tower to take control of the west gate.

Liu Kui quickly led people to capture the main road in Beiyun City, and put a signal.

In addition, the same is true of the East City Gate, which was quickly captured by another general and led by others, and also put a signal.

Then two parts of the people intercepted and killed the Beirong soldiers who went from the south gate to the east and west city gates to support.

The people of Beiyun City hid in the cellar one after another.

If you go out now, you'll be killed directly.

The yamen of Beiyun City was occupied by Liu Kui, and the traffic arteries were all blocked.

The places where the officials and wealthy businessmen were, all surrounded.

There are also some cowardly, during the day, they have already left the city from the north gate and returned to Beirong.

This city, in the former dynasty of the Great Qi, belonged to the northernmost city of the Central Plains Dynasty.

Later, because of the weakening of the national strength and the turmoil in the imperial court, the people were not able to make a living, so they were exploited by Beirong and occupied.

Even if the Great Zhou was established later, it was never recovered.

More than seventy percent of Beiyun City are Han Chinese, speaking Chinese.

Although the local Beirong dialect is also promoted, everyone speaks Beirong's dialect on the surface, and when they go home at night, they still speak Chinese.

At this time, the common people heard that it was Han outside and ordered, "Everyone is at home, and they are not allowed to come out." If there is disobedience, there will be no forgiveness. ”

In the back house of the Song family's jade shop, the masters of the family are crowded in the secret room of the house, and they can vaguely hear the shouts outside.

"Dad, Da Zhou really occupies Beiyun City, I heard someone call the shots in Chinese." Song Dalang was a little excited, and he couldn't wait to go out now.

Old man Song patted his son's head hard, "What's the hurry!" Now that there is chaos outside, you go out and are cut down as Beirong people, isn't it wronged? ”

Song Dalang nodded again and again, "Dad is right." It's a mess outside, and you really can't go out. ”

Song Erlang asked: "Dad, the Great Zhou people control Beiyun City, and I don't know if it will affect our business?" ”

Old man Song pondered for a moment, "Some time ago, I went to a shopping mall and learned that there were all capable generals sent by His Majesty personally. Even Mrs. Drey came. ”

Song Dalang was stunned, "Is that the woman who promotes sweet potatoes and corn?" ”

Old man Song nodded, "Yes, and the entire mall is not the same as before." The people walking on the road were all in good spirits and with smiles on their faces. ”

It can be seen that the people of Sangcheng are doing well. On the other hand, our Beiyun City, especially the shops opened by our Han people, pay twice the taxes of Beirong people. ”

"Not only did they open shops, but even the surrounding Han people farmed and paid taxes. Obviously, we work harder, but we make very little money. ”

"Now that the Great Zhou has finally recovered Beiyun City, it must be possible to reduce taxes. We were originally from the Central Plains, and even if we were affected, it would be a good influence. ”

Song Dalang and Song Erlang breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, "It would be great if taxes could be reduced." ”

This kind of dialogue is not only in Han families like the Song family, but also in other Han families in Beiyun City.

Although they are under the rule of Beijon, they are also the targets of severe oppression.

Many people are looking forward to the Great Zhou being able to take control of Beiyun City as soon as possible, and from then on, the Han people here will no longer have to be bullied by the Beirong people as before.

After a battle in the middle of the night, Beiyun City was under control.

Liu Kui personally led people to open the south gate of the city to welcome Li Yuanqing.

After entering the city gate, Li Yuanqing immediately announced, "On the orders of the Great Zhou Emperor, the co-lord of the Central Plains, we will recover Beiyun City." ”

The yamen of Beiyun City was also originally left over, and now it is directly occupied by Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing didn't want to kill, so he said in a deep voice: "Pass on this commander's order, the people of Beirong in the city can leave Beiyun City one day." ”

Liu Kui was slightly stunned when he heard this, "Don't you arrest all these Beirong people?" ”

Li Yuanqing asked: "Arrest these people, we don't have so many guards to guard them!" There are still very important things to do, and I can't keep busy. ”

Liu Kui said in a deep voice: "General, you shouldn't have heard anything about Beiyun City!" ”

Li Yuanqing was surprised, "I know a little bit about the geography and people of Beiyun City, is there anything I don't know?" ”

Liu Kui replied: "After the Beirong people occupied Beiyun City this year, they once slaughtered the city for one day, killing and injuring tens of thousands of people. ”

"If we let these Beirong people go back now, wouldn't we be sorry for the innocent Han people who died?"

"Actually, not only I have this idea, but other brothers also think so, and I can't easily let go of the Beirong people."
