Chapter 342: Sweeping through thousands of armies swept like a sweep
Normally, Li Yunze would rectify after he grasped power. Diaphragm
The local city fox and the rats, the evil officials in the yamen, and the profiteers on the street are all targets of rectification.
Here in Chang'an City, it is naturally no exception.
He thought that Chang'an City would settle down after the rectification, but he never thought that there would be people who would dare to reach out and mess around at such a critical moment when the enemy army was besieging the city.
"You guys are looking down on me, Li."
On the way to Jingzhao Mansion on horseback, Li Yunze had many thoughts in his mind.
A certain elder who did not escape from Chang'an City, like Lu Xian, was instigated behind his back.
Huang Chao sent people to infiltrate the city to wreak havoc. Diaphragm
The clans who didn't run away secretly pulled their hind legs.
Like Jiang Chun, the head of the chamber of commerce, he didn't want to die for money and so on.
There were too many possibilities, which made Li Yunze's eyes more and more serious.
If there is a big force stabbing him in the back, he will definitely go crazy.
Li Yunze, who is Jingzhao Yin, is the first time to come to the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion.
With a black face, he entered the yamen with a large group of tooth soldiers, and the startled crowd waited in a queue to listen to Li Yunze's reprimand.
Li Yunze, who was sitting on the chair of the Malaysian Golden Dao, looked at everyone indifferently, "What did you say when you were going to offer food?" "Ahh
Immediately, there was a document to salute, "Go back to the Ming Mansion to ask, and the limit is 200 words." ”
"Then why is there a grain merchant in the West Market who gives 400 yuan of grain and rice?" Li Yunze's gaze became more and more indifferent, "Ben Jiang's words are regarded as wind in his ears, are you floating, or Ben Jiang can't lift the knife?" ”
"Wronged~~~"
Everyone hurriedly shouted: "How dare we disobey the order of the Ming Mansion?" When grain is given to grain merchants, it is given according to 200 wen of rice. ”
"Hehe~~~"
It's okay to fool those who are stupid in reading and reading, but if you want to fool Li Yunze, you will look down on him too much.
"Do you still want to say that when you give grain to the grain merchants, it is 200 yuan of rice, so it has nothing to do with the grain merchants who resell it at a higher price?" Diaphragm
Speaking of this, Li Yunze shook his head with a smile, "This routine is really unchanged for thousands of years." ”
"Alright, I don't need to explain anything." He waved his hand, "I understand without explanation." You and others colluded with grain merchants to supply grain to grain merchants at official prices, so as to fool me. The grain merchant then sold it to the people at a higher price, and the profit was divided equally. If anyone comes to tell me
form, you are responsible for leveling. Yes and no? ”
Everyone in Jingzhao Mansion looked at each other, this martial artist is not stupid, he is so clear about the doorway here.
"I want to come to Chang'an and Wannian counties, and I take care of it like this."
Li Yunze, who sighed, simply got up, "This general is busy with official business, so I don't have time to spend it with you." Those who stand up and turn themselves in now will be saved. Otherwise, it will be dealt with by military law. ”
In the Tang Dynasty, military law was no longer as complicated as in the Qin and Han dynasties, where noses, ears, and hands and feet were cut. Diaphragm
To summarize it in a general way, it is to beat the military stick for misdemeanors, and cut off the head directly for serious crimes.
It's simple and straightforward.
In terms of what these people have done, I am afraid that the beating of the military stick will not be able to mix.
The expressions of the people in Jingzhao Mansion were different, but they remained silent.
The people who are happy are all at the bottom, and they don't have their share when they share the benefits, but now that someone is coming, they have a chance.
Those who looked flustered, but wanted to get through in the dark, could only hope that Li Yunze would be able to punish the public.
Besides, it was Mingfu who asked for 200 wen and a bucket to sell, and we all did what you ordered. What mistakes did we seize the opportunity to earn a vote, but you didn't make it clear yourself, what do you have to do with me? Diaphragm
It can only be said that they still don't know Li Yunze.
If you really know him, you would never think so.
Although Li Yunze is a gentleman, he cannot be bullied.
On the contrary, his heart is not big, and whoever dares to play him will definitely be put in small shoes.
Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Li Yunze directly instructed the soldiers beside him, "Go to the wounded barracks and pick a group of brothers who can't serve anymore to come over and take over the positions of each class in Jingzhao Mansion and Chang'an Wannian County." ”
The officials were naturally frightened, shouting again and again that they were wronged, and some people even said angrily, "We have been serving as officials for generations, why should the Ming government take it by force?" ”
For these servants who have been passed down for generations, Li Yunze waved his hand directly, and the tooth soldiers stepped forward and drove them out directly. Diaphragm
Li Yunze looked at the clerical clerks with blank faces again, and smiled casually: "Set up training courses in the army to teach sergeants to read and write." When you graduate, you can retire as a clerk. ”
There is no illiteracy in the modern world, everyone is educated.
In this era, there are very few knowledgeable scholars, and if you want to be a clerk or something, reading and literacy is the foundation.
It is a long-term plan to set up training courses in the military.
In the future, whether Li Yunze stays in Chang'an City or goes outside for a town, he will need a large number of clerks.
But now, "put up notices in the city and recruit people to be officials." ”
After the arrangement, Li Yunze stretched out his hand and pointed to the clerks of the yamen, "Take them out and interrogate them strictly, what evil things have been done in the past, and you have to ask everyone who you have taken a bath when you have peeked when you were a child." After asking clearly, dispose of it with the profiteers who sold my grain at a higher price. "Ahh
Facts have proved that even here in Datang, being a clerk is also a beauty difference that people all over the world are eager for.
On the day the notice was posted, hundreds of people came to sign up.
As the most prosperous capital in the world, there are too many long-drifters waiting for the opportunity, and now the opportunity will certainly not be missed.
As for Li Yunze's actions at this time, he has already touched the bottom line of the Tang Dynasty, and now he is the biggest in Chang'an City, who cares about this?
Li Yunze provided a large amount of food, which can be regarded as stabilizing the hearts of the people in Chang'an City.
Now, we have to find a way to lift the siege.
There are a lot of reinforcements on the periphery, but the soldiers and horses in each town are hesitant to move forward, and they still have to rely on themselves. Diaphragm
Time hurried and came to the spring of the second year of Guangming.
The Huangchao army, which had paid heavy losses, finally built a huge siege machine.
In order to prevent it from being destroyed again, they protected the siege equipment very well this time, and Li Yunze only destroyed part of it in several attacks.
Huang Chao, who had long been unable to hold back, soon launched a full-scale attack on Chang'an City.
First, the river channel was dug to divert all the living water around Chang'an City, so that the water level of the moat dropped.
After that, the cannon fodder rushed forward with burlap bags filled with dirt and rocks, braving the rain of arrows to fill the moat.
This work alone lasted more than ten days. Diaphragm
By the time the moat had been filled in with many passages, the general assault had finally begun.
Thousands of thieves, pushing all kinds of siege engines, approached the city walls.
The defenders on the city wall also began to counterattack, not to mention the rain of arrows, and heavy weapons such as the Eight Ox Crossbow were also desperately shooting, shooting out the half-man-long thick crossbow.
The power of the eight-bull crossbow is extremely powerful, shooting at people, whether you are a soldier or not, it is a rhythm that is directly nailed to the ground.
Shooting on siege equipment is also a direct piercing.
Rushing carts, ladders, nest carts, etc., passed through the filled moat, leaning against the city walls.
Because it was too heavy and sturdy, it was impossible to push it away. Diaphragm
A large number of thieves took the stairs and ladders to rush up the city wall and engaged in a fierce battle with the defenders.
The fiercest place for the battle was at Yanxingmen.
Because Li Yunze has gone out of the city to fight from here several times, it is obvious that the city gate hole here has not been blocked, so Huang Chao chose the main attack direction here.
Tens of thousands of thieves and soldiers continued to surge over, attacking the city walls on both sides of Yanxing Gate, and there were dozens of siege equipment that successfully leaned on the city walls alone.
Then came a heavy crash, dragged by dozens of iron-clad oxen to the city gates.
The slamming wood wrapped in the metal sleeve was pulled up, and then fell and slammed against the city gate.
'Winter!
'Ahh
The terrifying impact sound shocked everyone's hearts in panic.
"General, seal the city gates." Many people found Li Yunze and proposed that Yanxing Gate be sealed with sand, gravel and soil, so that even if the city gate was destroyed, they would not be afraid.
"No, you don't." Li Yunze, who was standing at the head of the city and looking at the passages of the various markets in the city, stretched out his hand and pointed to those roads, "Xinchang, Shengdao, Xuanping, Shengping, the passages of each city are all sealed, so that the cavalry can wait for the attack on Suzaku Street." ”
Li Yunze not only wanted to defend Chang'an City, but also inflicted heavy losses on Huang Chao's subordinates.
Chang'an City is originally a military city, and the blockade of Fang City immediately turned into a small fortress, and it is the real strongest city in the world.
After two consecutive days of attack, after paying a huge price in casualties, Huang Chao's general Zhao Zhang's department finally crashed open the Yanxing Gate.
Huang Chao, who learned the news, was overjoyed and immediately ordered the crowd to use Yanxing Gate as a breakthrough to enter the city. Diaphragm
Many thieves poured into the city, wielding weapons and preparing to vent the grievances and anger of these days.
They're going to loot, they're going to slaughter, they're going to do pistonism!
But when he rushed into the city, he was stunned to find that both sides of the road were full of towering and solid walls, and the passages between the various markets were also blocked.
If you want to attack, you will be greeted by a rain of arrows, and you will be faced by a full-eyed armor soldier who forcibly passes by.
There are more and more people rushing in behind, and in desperation, they can only keep moving forward and forward.
Crossing the fang market everywhere, with the arrows and crossbows and stones shot from both sides, it traversed half of Chang'an City, and finally rushed to the Vermilion Bird Street on the central axis of Chang'an City.
Suzaku Street is so wide that it is called Heavenly Street. Diaphragm
This street is the central axis of Chang'an City running north-south, with a length of more than five kilometers and a width of more than 100 meters.
The avenue is more than 100 meters wide, longer than the length of a football field.
There is no doubt that Suzaku Street is the first street in the world in this era.
When the fastest Gaihong ran out of the street and came to Suzaku Street.
Everyone was amazed by the spaciousness of the terrifying street in front of them.
So flat, so spacious, so... Hiss?!
The thieves finally saw the officers and soldiers gathered on Suzaku Street, and there were thousands of horsemen as far as they could see. Diaphragm
Li Yunze, who was wearing armor, was carrying a horse lance in his hand, and when he saw the thieves rushing onto Suzaku Street, he immediately raised his hand.
The armor soldiers who had been sitting on the ground to rest before got up and mounted their horses one after another, turning into terrifying armored horses!
Raising his hand and lowering his armor, Li Yunze took a deep breath, and waved the horse lance in his hand forward, "Rush!" ”
Thousands of cavalry rushed mightily, crashing into the passage crowded with thieves like the top of Mount Tai.
The terrifying impact of the armored cavalry was revealed, destroying the thieves along the way like a wave of swords.
The momentum that soars into the sky is the real sweeping of thousands of armies!
