347. It's almost over
The door of the Tiger Festival was opened, and the uninvited guests drove in, shattering the peace in the road.
Military operations were not street fights, and the Left Wing Army still retained more or less the qualities of a regular army.
Under the command of officers at all levels, they occupied and controlled the city towers and reconnoitred and searched the buildings of various government offices.
The sub-castle had a triple gate and a partition on the city walls, so it could only be attacked from the ground passage.
After some searching, not even a ghost shadow was found, and the Left Wing Army and hundreds of private troops gradually advanced to the mighty military gate.
There was still no movement in the city, but the gates were locked, as if to silently express their refusal.
What does this mean?
If the door is not closed in front, and the door is closed here, what is the trouble?
Lure the enemy deep into you, and lure it thoroughly.
Yang Ji's brows sank slightly, thinking about the cattiness inside.
At this time, Li Zhi rushed up from behind with a sword, "What are you doing when you stop?"
"Judgment, this city gate is closed, and the last general feels strange......
Li Zhi's face was full of impatience, and splitting his head and covering his face was a lesson.
"What weirdness can it be!? The gates are slammed open as soon as they are closed! There are only two hundred Praetorian guards inside, so what's there to worry about? Eight hundred against two hundred, the advantage is mine! You have been grinding for most of the day, in case you run away for the female godmaster, then it will be a great disaster! Rush! Hurry up! No more hesitation!"
And Zhou Lian, Zheng Taiqing and the others also ran to oversee the army anxiously, waving the delicate long sword in their hands, "Looking ahead, how can you achieve great things!?" Within a quarter of an hour, you will reach the gate of the Governor's Palace!"
As a military general, the tradition of being dominated by Wenchen has been carved into the bone marrow, Yang Ji did not dare to refute it at all, so he had to order his subordinates to start ramming the city gate.
Perhaps because the city gate inside the sub-city was not taken seriously, it had not been repaired and replaced for hundreds of years, so after being hit by the wood twenty or thirty times, a big hole was knocked out.
Finding that there still seemed to be no one inside, several soldiers immediately got inside, removed the door bar, and opened the city gate.
"Attack, attack! Whoever enters the Governor's Mansion first will be rewarded with 500 cents!"
More than a dozen civil officials shouted excitedly, and drove all the soldiers to the city gate like a sheep.
In their opinion, breaking two goals in a row is obviously already a victory in sight. Z.br>
Under the heavy reward, the soldiers all screamed and rushed in.
Yang Ji was very annoyed by the civil officials' indiscriminate orders, but he couldn't help himself, and was swept into the doorway by his chaotic subordinates, and soon rushed through the doorway like a crowd.
At this time, he suddenly smelled a relatively strong aroma of wine, which felt a little strange, and before he had time to think about it, he was wrapped forward by his subordinates who were eager to make a fortune, and rushed to the door of the governor's mansion ninety zhang away.
Seeing that his subordinates had become disorganized and rushed forward, Yang Ji immediately shouted angrily.
"Stop! Stop the whole team! Violators will be killed!"
Officers at all levels also shouted one after another, "There is still a city gate in front, can you run so fast to be reincarnated!?"
"Steady, steady! In case of ambush, no matter how good the money is, it must be enjoyed only if it is alive!"
"Mother Selin, deaf? Stop it!"
Dragged and punched and kicked, the class consciousness in the army still played a role, and the left-wing sergeants stopped.
But the private soldiers did not care about this, and simply crossed the left flank from both sides and continued to rush forward.
However, this sandwich road was only two zhang wide, and the walls on both sides were higher than those of the government office outside, and the scene became more chaotic than just now.
If an ambush had come out at this time, the hundreds of people would have collapsed immediately.
At the head of the Governor's Gate, it was bleak, and a group of people were standing in the darkness, quietly watching this chaotic scene.
"I seem to think a little highly of them......" Zhao Mengqi muttered.
Chen Wei beside him looked a little complicated, "Your Highness, there is actually no need to be like this, since you have discovered that they are going to do something wrong, you can cut it off in the bud, why take such a risk as you do now?"
Zhao Mengqi shook his head and smiled lightly, "If it is extinguished early, it will be the same
How can the whole people of Fuzhou witness this rebellion? What's more, there is still a big difference in sentencing between an intentional rebellion and an ongoing rebellion......
Chen Wei smiled bitterly, "Heaven has the virtue of a good life."
In fact, he didn't understand the purpose of Yan Wang's fishing law enforcement, but he felt that this method was too cruel, and thousands of lives would inevitably be involved afterwards.
Zhao Mengqi said coldly, "Before, I also thought that with gentle means, I could twist the Great Song Dynasty to the right path, but some people regard this as my weakness!"
After a pause, his voice became a little colder, "Since the Tree of Revival must be watered with blood, let's start with these people."
As he spoke, the rebellious army, which had barely restored some order with the efforts of the officers, was only forty zhang away from the gate of the governor's mansion.
Zhao Mengqi raised his hand, a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "God said there should be light, I said, there must be fire, prepare, light the fire... Launch!"
At the same time, the rebels in the mezzanine saw the city glow with fire, and then four torches sticking out of the battlements.
What is this for? Yang Ji was puzzled.
It is not surprising that there are people guarding him at the head of the city, after all, this is the last line of defense, even if King Yan gives up the first two lines because of insufficient troops, he will definitely not give up this way.
Before he could figure out what he could do, he saw four torches turn into meteors and fly whistling!
By the glass! How can there be a bed crossbow here!?
"Dodge!!" Yang Ji subconsciously let out a terrible roar.
But there were either high walls on either the two sides or the closed gates of the government office, and there was not much place to hide, so most people had to try to lie down in the area.
But before they could lie down, four meteors flew over their heads and pierced the mighty military gate behind them.
They hadn't even noticed that there were many wooden barrels and clay pots piled up on both sides of the doorway, which were only slightly fixed with a thin wooden board made of hastily constructed.
The fire-filled crossbow pierced the planks and shattered them, causing them to fall into the trap and shatter the barrels and clay pots that had lost their grip on the tunnel, pouring out spirits and oil, and instantly igniting them, forming a thick wall of fire that blocked the rebels' way back.
The rebels were all dumbfounded when they saw this scene, and Yang Ji was even more alarmed in his heart, realizing that he and the others had fallen into a trap.
Now that the back road is broken, the only way to survive is to rush forward, "The whole army obeys the order and rushes to the gate of the governor's mansion!" They only have two hundred troops, so charge me!"
But at this time, hundreds of black shadows appeared on the high walls on both sides, and they shot towards the dense chaotic army with crossbows against the enemy.
"Who said that there are only two hundred, don't treat the military Chinese as soldiers, really think that we will only talk on paper?"
After Lu Xiufu finished shooting an arrow, he muttered and turned around and bent over, stepped on the stirrup ring at the front end of the crossbow arm with his foot, and then pulled the crossbow string with both hands, pulled it up with the help of his waist force, completed the rewinding, and then installed the crossbow arrow.
Poke your head out again, and instead of firing at the same volley, look for a more valuable target in the rebel pile.
Nearly two hundred crossbow arrows were fired in a volley, the rebels suffered heavy casualties, and there were howling ghosts and wolves, and few people thought of fighting back.
"Rush to rush, let me rush forward if you want to live."
Yang Ji waved his waist knife, looking like a madman, trying to drive the soldiers to charge.
Lu Xiufu captured this scene and immediately aimed the enemy's crossbow at Yang Ji, "It's you!"
The moment the hanging knife was buckled, Yang Ji seemed to be keenly aware of this mortal danger, and subconsciously dragged the small soldier in front of him as a shield.
The bolt pierced the chest of the creep who was screaming in terror, calming his fear once and for all.
Yang Ji, who had escaped, shouted in his heart that he was lucky, and Lu Xiufu couldn't help but be a little annoyed and disappointed, and was about to turn around and rewind it, but he saw a crossbow gun flying in, penetrating the thick iron armor without hindrance, piercing into Yang Ji's back, and then piercing through his chest, and continuing to pierce into the corpse of the little soldier, firmly stringing this officer and a soldier together, and letting them accompany Huangquan Road.
"Friends of life and death... Officers and soldiers ...... equally"
Lu Xiufu muttered while winding, he was not a person who talked a lot, but he was just the first time to go into battle, the first time to kill, and subconsciously used this way to relieve tension
Sheet.
Whether it is an armored left-wing army or an unarmored private army, they are all equal in front of the enemy's crossbow at close range, and as long as they are shot, they will either be killed or wounded.
After a few rounds of crossbow arrows, no more than half of the more than 700 people could still breathe, and there should be only a few dozen of them who were uninjured, in a sense, they were all wiped out.
Zhao Mengqi at the head of the city put down the binoculars, his expression was not joyful, but a little disappointed and disappointed, "It's also the main army all the way, it's such a waste......
Then he took off his hood and said, "Order, let Chang Geng and them attack to clean up the mess."
Looking at the armor on his body, you can know that he originally planned to go into battle in person to have a good time, but unfortunately the rebels would rather die than satisfy his wish......
The order was handed down, the door of the governor's mansion opened, and Chang Geng lined up with a hundred Banzhi guards.
They were all dressed in step armor and armed with sacks, and they lined up in a tight formation, like a wall.
According to the plan, they are the core force of this operation, and this kind of sandwich terrain is completely tailor-made for the perfect battlefield for heavy infantry.
Where do you think about it, when they come out, they will only have to clean up the battlefield.
"Those who descend will not die! ……」
The Praetorian guards shouted in unison, slowly closing in on the remnants of the rebels.
Those who can still have the will to resist in the face of this situation are definitely heroes, but unfortunately there are no such characters in the rebels.
As long as they were still able to move, they obediently obeyed the instructions, discarded all their weapons, and lay on the road with their heads in their hands.
A rebellion seems to have been put down without a single soldier.
And the wall of fire of the mighty military gate is still burning, these spirits and oil are worth a lot of money, and they are definitely the biggest cost of this operation.
At the moment when the fire broke out, a hundred Banzhi guards emerged from the houses outside the sub-city and quickly attacked the open Tiger Festival Gate.
The more than 30 rebels who stayed at the city gate were caught off guard, and after a short period of resistance, they were occupied by the Praetorian Guards, and all the civil officials such as Zhou Lian were locked inside, with nowhere to escape.
After seeing the signal fireworks shot from the Tiger Festival Gate, Zhao Mengqi yawned, "It's almost over......
