Chapter 2 The Battle of Yongzhou

Qingmeng ruled the country according to the people, then the next target pointed to the Xiaobei country, although the emperor of the Xiaobei country Shi Ren led the army to fight omnipotently, but he did not care about the life or death of the people, insisted on waging a war of aggression against the surrounding countries, forcing people to contribute 9/10 of the grain to the country, people rebelled, but all were bloodily suppressed.

Qingmeng was even more happy when he learned the news: "This is God to help me destroy Xiaobeiye!" Qingmeng personally conquered Xiaobeiguo, was the main general, and then ordered Gao Yu to lead 10,000 soldiers and horses as his former general, and ordered a veteran Hu Jingsheng to lead 5,000 soldiers as the rear troops, and set out on the same day.

Lao Ru discussed with Qingmeng for a long time the night before the expedition, the emperor could not personally conquer, he could not invade for a while, and he had to defend himself. What does Qingmeng, who was carried away by victory, care about all this? But it was not good to walk away directly, so he looked at the floor drowsily, and listened to the analysis of the old Confucian in his left ear and his right ear.

"Woo woo woo ......" the next day the drum horn declared, the flag fluttered, Qingmeng rode a horse to personally read the troops, the morale of the soldiers was greatly boosted, and they wanted to fight to the death with the emperor and Xiaobeiguo, Gao Yu was in the front, after settling down, he erected the order flag, Qingmeng saw this, and shouted: "Go out!" With the sound of iron hooves, this righteous army went out, I don't know who, sang the ballad of this area, and the song gradually became far away......

"After the autumn, the rice flowers and wheat fields are fragrant ~ Alas ~ Alas ~ Hey hey ~ The hot-blooded man leaves his hometown Alas ~ Alas ~ I'm not afraid that my family will have no food to eat ~ There are no thieves to rob in the peaceful and prosperous world ~ Alas ~ Alas ~ Jin Ge Iron Horse goes to the frontier ~ Alas ~ I advise my brothers not to miss home ~ Yo yo yo ~ Hey hey ~ Raise the iron armor three-foot sword ~ Yo ~ Eliminate the thief Kou and build his hometown ~ Alas ~ "

This burst of beautiful songs, with the breeze drifted to all places, it floated to the golden wheat field, the wheat field danced with it, it floated to the dense forest, the tall trees sang with it, it floated into the heart of every soldier, ignited the heart of the hot-blooded man who went out on the expedition.

At this moment, Yongzhou, the northernmost city of the Haibo Empire, has been attacked by the Xiaobei Army, Shi Ren personally led the troops to attack, but was met with stubborn resistance from Taishou, Shi Ren ordered to besiege Yongzhou, and all the reinforcements that came were ambushed and the whole army was annihilated, Yongzhou. The number of people starving to death in the army of Taishou is increasing day by day than the number of people killed in battle, Yongzhou City has the malicious ambush of the Xiaobei Army in all directions, the food in the city is decreasing day by day, and the deserters are also increasing day by day, Shi Ren sent his nephew Shi Xu into the city to negotiate with Yongzhou Taishou Shi Kai, "Now my Xiaobei army has besieged Yongzhou for many days, and the soldiers and civilians are starving to death so much, as a Taishou, not thinking about the people, but insisting on war, it will definitely be notorious!" Shi Xu roared arrogantly at Shi Kai.

"Oh? What good way do you have to say that? Hurry up and tell your uncle Shi Ren to surrender, and avoid the dispute between the two families!" Shi Kai said with a smile.

"Phew!" Shi Xu scolded: "You have reached this step in the field, you still dare to be stubborn, I warn you, if you don't open the city and surrender now, when my uncle attacks it, he will set fire to the city! ”

"Hmph!" Shi Kai picked up his sword and stood up: "I, King Zheng's reputation and reputation are focused on the four seas, as his subordinate, I must have backbone! How can I be humiliated by your small country at will? If I really submit to you, I will leave a stench for ten thousand years!" Shi Kai walked slowly towards Shi Xu.

Shi Xu hurriedly said, "You ...... What do you want to do? If you can, you can tell us the conditions, say, what are the conditions on which you can agree to surrender?"

"I'm sorry, I think loyalty to the monarch is a courtier, and you should do it at any time!" Shi Kai said, raising his short sword and cutting off Shi Xu's left arm, Shi Xu's left arm was gone inadvertently, and he cried out in pain. "Go back and tell him, I'm Shi Kai, I'll never surrender!" Shi Kai yelled and drove Shi Xu out of the barracks.

"Huh?!" Shi Ren looked at Shi Xu's injury and said angrily: "Tomorrow...... Just tomorrow! The whole army will attack, and the offensive will be carried out at all costs!! "The next day, the army launched a full-scale offensive, Shi Kaijun's combat effectiveness was low, it had been besieged for five or six days, the grain was boiled and the water was intercepted, and there was no fighting spirit, and as soon as he heard that the war was going on, he hurriedly fled. Shi Renjun was as strong as a bamboo, and broke through the city gate in less than five minutes, "It seems that my plan is still good." Shi Ren said with a smile.

"Everybody keep going...... Gong Zheng has already led 30,000 soldiers and horses to support us, let's not panic!" But where can the hungry and frightened soldiers listen? Fleeing and trampling on each other, I saw the Xiaobei army suddenly attack from the rear, Shi Kai's rear troops were all wiped out, Shi Kai rode his horse and was just about to escape, he was a little physically exhausted, and the front was confused. Can't see the road clearly. He was tripped by a horse in the middle of running, "Catch him!" "Catch him!" "Catch him!

"What, can you be submissive to me?" Shi Ren said with a smile, he didn't want to give up a talent because of a stupid nephew, so he invited him to a good meal, so he asked.

"Just cut off your head, grandpa, I still have to think about it!hahahahahaha......hahahahaha

"Quick...... Pull this madman out and behead him!" Frightened ordered, only to hear a shouting and scolding outside: "Shi Ren, you dog who has lost his conscience! There will be retribution!" Shi Ren wanted the soldiers to vent their frustration, so he picked it up. The weapons carried out a terrible massacre in Yongzhou, all the women were arrested to comfort the soldiers, the old people and children dug a big pit and buried them, and for the men, a few strong men were selected as the people who produced iron tools, and then this group of demons tortured the remaining people to death with various strange ways of death, wails and sorrows could be heard within a radius of hundreds of miles, and the city of Yongzhou was burned by fire. For three days and three nights, Yongzhou City instantly became a ruin.

When Qingmeng heard the news, his heart was extremely sad, and he often sobbed in the dead of night, and he quickened his march, expecting to arrive outside the city of Yongzhou tomorrow.

"Come on...... Beauty ......" Shi Ren and his wife drank wine together to celebrate the victory of this war. Shi Ren's wife's father was the chief of the steppe Hopt department, Shi Ren. It is with his wife that he has a place in the Taiwei Empire, so his wife said one and he didn't dare to say two.

"Report! Zhang Qingmeng has arrived on the outskirts of the city, and they are marching towards us at a very fast speed!" A soldier hurriedly came to report, Shi Ren looked at his wife and said, "Beauty...... You see. "Go, go, go, is the country important!" Shi Ren was relieved to hear this, Shi Ren had already laid a net outside Yongzhou City, just waiting for this fish to slip through the net.

Qingmeng never put Xiaobeiguo in his eyes, so this time, he did not settle the military horses, but moved forward day and night, and led to Yongzhou City without even a little defense.

"When the troops in front of us come over, we will cut off their marching line along the waist!" Shi Ren ordered, they saw that Gao Yu's army had crossed the pass, and the troops from all directions came out together, this beating Qingmeng was caught off guard, and the soldiers were so frightened by this sudden attack that they crawled, but where could they run? The rear troops were also cut off, and they only had one way to go, that is, the mountain road in the east, which Qingmeng ordered to lead, but this was exactly Shi Ren's plan, Qingmeng was now trapped alone, and the two armies in front and back were blocked in the mountain pass and outside the mountain, and the danger was lurking, and Qingmeng could be killed at any time.
