Chapter 551: Swinging the North

Three days later, Luoyang, Anyang, and Yuzhou, each left 5,000 soldiers to defend the city, and the rest of the soldiers were all assembled, a total of 100,000 soldiers, 30 immortal boats, 5 organ boats, more than 60 immortal boats, and more than 30 wooden kites, with Cai Youji, Wang Hongzhang, and Qin Shujie as the main generals, Yuwen Changqing as the military advisor, Yan Yunting as the thug, and Su Yunying and other thirteen doctors as military doctors.

"Yiyi, Xiao Li, Yanfu will ask you to take care of it, or I will come back soon."

Ning Ruowei took away all the ladies of the Peacock Tower, and now only Guo Xiaoli and Hu Yiyi are left in the Yan Mansion. However, with Yan Yunting's escape technique, he traveled all over the north and south of the river, and it was only between sunrise and sunset.

"It's better to let them go back to the palace with me, Baixi is gone, and the queen is so cold, I need to serve." Li Yu raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"Don't you complain about the occasion? There are civil and military officials behind him! Qing Yan glared lightly.

Li Yu just smiled and said loudly: "It's a pity that I am busy with state affairs and can't drive the expedition in person, so I can only wish all the generals and soldiers a great victory, and I am waiting for you to return in Luoyang!" ”

"Thank you Your Majesty for your auspicious words, the ministers will definitely live up to expectations!" Yuwen Changqing thanked him, turned around and waved his feather fan, and shouted at the whole army:

"The soldiers are fast, set off immediately!"

The boat roars, accompanied by the wooden kite, and the mighty is waving north!

……

Yan Yunting stood on top of the wooden kite with his sword, leading in front of the fleet, and the feeling of shouldering a heavy responsibility was shocking and exciting at the same time.

Thinking back a few years ago, on the land of Yongzhou, he was still a poor nobody who couldn't even afford horses, but now, like Su Lao Sword God, he has become a leader who can take charge of himself.

The great man of chivalry is for the country and the people. Old Su Sword God, I didn't disappoint you, I really did it.

The old sword god Shou Yuan is about to be able to defeat the Wuxiang Emperor, he Yan Yunting is young and vigorous, how can he be haggard because of an illusory dream?

It's still early, and the journey has just begun!

"Yan Daxia, military advisor, you can reach Xiajin City by walking another thirty miles, there are more than 10,000 poisonous people wandering around three miles outside the city, and there are not many scattered in the city." The two scouts rushed back to the fairy boat to report.

Yan Yunting jumped off the wooden kite and landed on the deck of the fairy ship, "Although the temperature is low today, the winter is very strong, and with the habit of poisoning people to shelter in the shade, they must be hiding in the house." ”

"Xiajin City is a ferry city, except for a small water gang on the dock, there are no other big gangs that can pose a threat," Yuwen Changqing looked at Yan Yunting: "Do you think there will be a Yellow Pupil Corpse King?" ”

Yan Yunting said: "Even if there is, it will be scared away by our battle, right?" Don't worry about it, go directly to Huangjin City. ”

"Pass the order, prepare for battle, and go to Xiajin City at full speed!"

"Yes!"

……

A quarter of an hour later, the fleet arrived over Shimotsu.

The wandering poisonous people heard the roar of the boats, and they all raised their heads and roared, and moved closer to the city with the sound.

"Do what you planned." Yuwen Changqing waved his feather fan.

A forward general, led by ten soldiers, divided into two fairy boats, each loaded with three barrels of gunpowder, close to the ground, and when it was thirty zhang from the ground, the fairy boat stopped, and the soldiers first lit two barrels of gunpowder and threw them one mile away from the city gateβ€”

"Boom!"

The gunpowder exploded and the sound was turbulent.

The poisonous man, who heard the sound, quickly moved closer to the explosion.

Looking at the city of Xiajin again, countless poisonous corpses poured out of the houses, and in an instant, they merged into a tide of corpses, surging out of the city.

Subsequently, the fleet divided into twenty immortal boats and ten wooden kites, which circled in the city at low altitude, leading poisonous people from all over the city out.

"Boom!"

There was another explosion, and the sound continued to ferment.

After all the six barrels of gunpowder were released, there were as many as 70,000 or 80,000 poisoners inside and outside the city.

"Seal the gates!" Yuwen Changqing ordered.

Yan Yunting, Cai Youji, Wang Hongzhang, and Qin Shujie each led thirty warriors, carrying more than a dozen logs, and flew quickly towards the four city gates.

The four squads quickly cleaned up the poisonous people under the city gate, closed the gate, and reinforced it behind the gate with logs.

"Crossbowmen and firecrackers, go to the city wall and stand by, and other swordsmen and gunners enter the city, and according to the orders of the generals, clear the remnants of the poisonous people in the city!"

The immortal ship quietly landed at the gates of the four major cities, 20,000 long-range soldiers boarded the city wall, and 80,000 melee soldiers were divided into four regiments.

"Although most of the poisonous people have been led out of the city, there are still many left in the city, every alley, every house, every rice tank, there is no tunnel, as long as it is a place where people can be hidden, they can't be let go!"

"Especially those mutated poisonous people, everyone should be extra careful!"

"General, don't be so loud, poisonous people are rushing towards us!"

"He. . . Mother. Discriminates against people with a rough voice? Look at Lao Tzu not chopping you all into minced meat! ”

Four regiments of melee soldiers, divided into teams of ten, with four shields to protect the front and rear, eight spears to guard one side, and two axe bearers waiting for the opportunity.

When the poisonous man comes, he will first have to eat a shot, and if he is not stabbed to death, the knife and axe will rush up to make up for the kill!

For the search of the house, the soldiers will knock on the door first, and if the ordinary poisonous person hears the sound, he will inevitably rush down, and blocking the door is a blow!

How can a poisonous person without thought be an elite opponent with an orderly attack and defense?

The army entered the city at noon, and before dark in the afternoon, they cleaned up the Xiajin City, which was nearly 10,000 households, and the corpses of the poisonous people were first transported by oxen and horses, and then transported outside the city by fairy boats.

At dusk, Yuwen Changqing took an ink cartridge and came to the center of the city, and before night fell, the sealing boundary was enveloped in the whole city of Xiajin.

When night comes, poisonous people are rampant, fangs and claws gnaw at the barrier.

The impact will consume the strength of the sealing, but as long as the spirit stones are replaced in time, there will be no big problem, this Northern Expedition, several monks have carried enough spirit stones, as long as there are no accidents, Xiajin City is impregnable.

Yan Yunting stood on the city wall with his hands in his hands, but he was not very happy about the victory in the first battle, but stared at the sky tightly. The challenges of the day are over, but the long night is long and unpredictable.

"Whew...... Although it seems easy, it is difficult step by step. Yuwen Changqing stretched his waist and walked up to the city wall.

Yan Yunting narrowed his eyes, "You don't seem to have done any physical work except for a few fans, right?" ”

Yuwen Changqing sighed with a smile: "Since ancient times, have you seen a military division go to the front line to fight?" You fight with all your strength, and I fight with my brain, and I'm also very tired. ”

"What about the casualties?" Yan Yunting asked softly.

Yuwen Changqing said: "There are seventeen soldiers, when they searched the cellar and alley, they were scratched by mutated female corpses and evil children, but they were not seriously injured, and they have taken the antidote, and now they are being isolated and observed by Miss Su." ”

Yan Yunting said: "But you can't take it lightly, the surplus grain, water sources, and bed quilts in the city must be carefully checked." ”

"You can rest assured, in a medium-sized city like this, it will take at least fifteen days to clean up, and then I will arrange for refugees to move in."

"And at night, patrols must be strengthened, especially to be vigilant against the Yellow Pupil Poisonous Corps, they have the ability to break the seal."

"Fifteen wooden kites, fifteen fairy boats, in three shifts, hovering over the city day and night, once they find something unusual, the bow and crossbow will be cleaned."

"That sounds like we can have a few drinks with confidence."

Yan Yunting's brows relaxed, he smiled, waved his sleeves, and a set of wine utensils appeared at his feet.

The two of them sit on the ground, you invite me to please, and drink happily!
