Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Final Blow

The next day, the men and horses of Sun Ming's two battalions were ready to go, and there were sentries constantly entering and leaving the base camp to pass the latest news to Sun Ming.

The city gate is more difficult to attack than the city wall, and Zhang Bao's siege weapons are directly smashed against the wall.

In the first letter, Zhang Bao had already begun to attack Gaoliu City, and the catapults and ordinary catapults continued to bombard the Gaoliu City Wall.

In the second seal, the catapult was still roaring, and although the wall was smashed out of many pits, it was still unhindered.

Third, the Gaoliu city wall has been damaged in many places, and the siege situation is still non-stop.

Fourth, the wall is already in danger, and there is a distress letter from Taishou Wang Ze in Gaoyanagi City.

In the fifth, the Gaoliu city wall was blasted out of a big hole, and the outer city was immediately broken, leaving only the urn city.

When Sun Ming received this fifth letter, he thought that the time had come, and immediately ordered the whole army to attack Zhang Bao's rear and flanks.

Zhang Bao saw that the outer city had been broken, and ordered the whole army to rush forward, and did everything to kill into Gaoliu City.

But the city also has a gate, and countless archers are already waiting for the rebels on it.

Zhang Bao ordered a strong attack, but he was no longer able to break through the urn city.

And a large number of enemy troops appeared behind them and on the flanks, and Zhang Bao saw that the general trend had gone, and suddenly his heart and lungs were broken, and he fell to the ground.

When those Yellow Turban soldiers saw Zhang Bao faint to death, they lost their backbones, and the generals began to flee.

Sun Ming and a few people were in the rear, and saw that the Yellow Turban Army had collapsed.

Most of them surrendered, and the big stone in their hearts finally let go, and they were finally worthy of those dead brothers.

In this battle, the Yellow Turban Army surrendered countless people, and even captured Zhang Bao and several of his protectors.

Wang Ze, the Taishou of Gaoliu City, led all the officers and soldiers out of the city to greet Sun Ming, and it was Sun Ming's arrival that saved them from the destruction of the city.

Wang Ze's first words when he met him were, "Thank you for saving the tens of thousands of people in Gaoliu City, please accept my Wang Ze's worship." ”

Sun Ming held Wang Ze's arm in time, "Wang Taishou praised falsely, it is the internal matter of Junyi to suppress thieves and calm the people, and I really can't stand Wang Taishou's great gift." ”

At this moment, Wang Ze was in a good mood, looking at Sun Ming very kindly, "Okay!" Not arrogant, I like it. ”

"Let's go, I have to have two drinks with Ben Taishou tonight." Wang Ze took Sun Ming's hand but refused to let go.

Sun Ming couldn't shirk it, so he had to explain a few words, and then he was dragged to his house by Wang Ze.

Their Wang family is also a big family, the main family is in Jizhou, and the family background is even bigger than Zhou Tao's Zhou family.

This Wang Ze is also a capable person, and when he came to this remote place, the entire Dai County was well organized by him in four years, and the industry continued to increase.

If it weren't for the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he Wang Ze would have been able to be promoted to Luoyang as an official after staying here for two more years, but this time he defeated the Yellow Turban Army, and he Wang Ze also made a great contribution.

"Come on, come on, I'll pay tribute to you on behalf of all the people." Wang Ze set up a banquet in his mansion and invited Sun Ming alone.

"The king is too polite, just call me Junyi, don't dare to be a hero in front of Taishou."

Wang Ze smiled and patted Sun Ming's shoulder, "You can afford it, you are a big hero, but it is better to call Junyi to close the distance between you and me, haha." ”

It may be the geographical location of Daijun, the people here are generally more bold and laughing, Qiu Muli of the Dao City is like this, and this Wang Ze is also like this.

"So that Jun is a true hero, guarding the lone army against the rebels for a long time, Jun Yi respects you."

Wang Ze was not happy when he heard it, "Don't call me the envoy, call me Uncle Wang, do you look down on me, haha." ”

When Sun Ming heard this, his head was full of black lines, and his feelings were even more immodest than that of Qiu Muli.

Wang Ze teased Sun Ming for a while before chatting about business: "Junyi, what do you think of the current chaotic world?" ”

Sun Ming thought for a while, and replied, "Now that the Han family is worried about the troubles, it is already full of holes, Junyi thinks that the soup cannot stop boiling, and the person who promotes the soup to eliminate the thief and eliminate the enemy is not the fundamental solution." ”

"If the system is not changed, and the ministers are not removed, it is like not going to go, no matter how hard we try to kill the enemy, it will be useless, if we kill a Zhang Bao, there will be another Chen Bao tomorrow."

Wang Ze glanced at Sun Ming appreciatively, and laughed, "I know that you kid is an understanding person, only the officials have always forced the people to rebel, and the root of everything is in the central Luoyang." ”

"After this matter is over, I will go to Luoyang to meet that group of 'fires', and I will definitely change the world."

Sun Ming wanted to persuade Wang Ze, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't help it, how could he Wang Ze not know that it was impossible to change it on his own, but he still wanted to go.

That's because he has great righteousness in his heart, and he has all the people in the world in his heart, and he knows that he can't do anything but try, and he has put his life on the line.

"What about you, where are you going next?"

When Sun Ming was thinking nonsense, Wang Ze's questioning pulled him back to reality.

"Junyi plans to go to Shanggu County next, continue to suppress thieves and settle the people, and by the way, establish meritorious deeds, and support another piece of heaven for the Han Dynasty."

When Wang Ze heard this, he let out that heroic and uninhibited laugh again.

Sun Ming didn't taste this wine, he knew that Wang Ze would be lucky enough to go to Luoyang.

Wang Ze drank and laughed heroically like no one else.

It took three days to take care of the battlefield, and Yu Li also caught the master who could make a catapult, which Sun Ming had confessed before.

With such a professional, Sun Ming is simply eager to wear it.

The descendant of Lu Ban was about thirty years old, dressed as a tenant farmer, and his appearance was not outstanding, so it was really difficult to associate him with the word "master".

He was brought to Sun Ming, who glanced up at his attributes.

【Gongsun Ping】

[Force: 72 (one in a hundred)]

[Intelligence: 84 (one out of a hundred)]

[Command: 42 (Normal)]

[Politics: 32 (weak)]

[Opinion: 20 (Normal)]

"This guy's intelligence is quite high, it's a pity to be a craftsman." Sun Ming thought to himself.

"You're the one who made the catapult?"

The master replied nervously, "General Hui, he is not a master in Xia, his surname is Gongsun, his name is Ping, he is a descendant of Luban's inheritance, and he is better at woodwork." ”

Li Meng was happy, "You said that you are a descendant of Luban, why are you surnamed Gongsun?" ”

"General Hui, I mean the descendants of Luban's craftsmanship, not the direct descendants."

Only then did Li Meng react, and his feelings were that he was uneducated.

Sun Ming then threatened, "You helped that thief Zhang Bao forge siege weapons, so that Gaoliu City was almost destroyed, you are really a great crime." ”

When Gongsun Ping heard this, he quickly knelt down and kowtowed, "Wronged, I was also forced to be helpless, the Yellow Turban Army broke into my house and forcibly tied me up." ”

"I'm just a craftsman, and I don't dare to participate in the current affairs of the world at all, I'm wronged."

As soon as Sun Ming heard this, the big stick lit up, and then it was time to give sugar.

"That's okay, I thought that you were forced, and the death penalty can be forgiven, as long as you promise me something, I will let you go."

As soon as Gongsun Ping heard that there was a way to live, he kowtowed again and again, "Thank you, general, the villain is willing to accept anything." ”

"As long as you teach me a hundred sappers in the forging of that catapult, you can leave, how about it."

When Gongsun Ping heard this, he immediately stopped begging for mercy, and lowered his head and said, "This is not good, the rules of our craft inheritance are all set by our ancestors, and I would rather die than break them." ”
