Chapter 242: Bloodstained Banner
When Xiao Yunhe arrived at the one in front of the city gate, he was like an iron heart, and he couldn't help but throb for a while. It was as if the cold and dark city gate and the latch were the most sacred gods in my heart, and I had finally reached it with great difficulty. At this moment, I can't say whether I should worship or hate this god!
There is no doubt that it will open the door to victory, but at the same time, it will wipe out the lives of many of the flesh and blood brothers around him.
"Gao Gu, remove the latch and open the city gate!" Xiao Yunhe's roar made the rebel soldiers suddenly feel an infinite chill - if the city gate is open, everyone knows what it means!
"Shoot the arrows!" I don't know who shouted, and the rebel generals who came from behind shot a flurry of arrows at the city gate, regardless of the lives of their own people.
A rain of arrows suddenly overwhelming!
In the darkness and chaos, it was extremely difficult to remove the arrows. Xiao Yunhe had no choice but to quickly swing the Chengying Sword, occasionally pulling over one or two rebel pawns and letting them be used as shields, covering the Gao Gu people behind him as much as possible, and opening the city gate with difficulty.
Suddenly, a person next to him suddenly jumped in front of Xiao Yunhe and shouted, "Big handsome little ......"
Before the word "heart" could be spoken, an arrow stabbed the man's throat fiercely, making him speechless.
Xiao Yunhe had almost no time to protect him, letting him lie down quietly, and could only continue to swing his sword to resist the arrows.
The man who didn't finish the four words before he died fell straight to Xiao Yunhe's side, and the blood in his throat had already dyed the place under him red.
Xiao Yunhe could only silently say in his heart: Good journey, brother!
He didn't even have time to see what kind of face the brother who died trying to save himself looked, and he could only build a sacred spiritual hall for him in the deepest part of his heart, and mourn and see him off in silence.
Sadness and anger are not enough to describe Xiao Yunhe's mood at the moment. He thought a lot about squandering all the power in his life in a moment, trying to ensure that the door behind him could be successfully opened.
Xuanwu Gate, the gate leading to the recovery of the Great Qi, took how much blood and life of heroes and martyrs to forge - why haven't you opened it yet?!!
There was a dull 'turn' sound behind him, and then there was a bang, and the latch was removed, and Gao Gu shouted loudly, "The gate is open!" As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up the huge latch, which took two or three people to lift, and smashed it into the pile of rebels.
Suddenly, there was a scream.
When that door was opened with difficulty and slowly, the sorrow and anger in Xiao Yunhe's heart finally burned to the peak - "Warriors, bloody Daming Palace, kill!"
Outside the city wall of Xuanwu Gate, Li Shengzheng personally led his archers and horsemen to shoot arrows at the head of the city, trying his best to contend with the rebels. Song Liangchen was only worried about Xiao Yunhe, who was under siege at the other end of the city wall, and he was already anxious and furious, eager to put on a pair of wings and fly to the city.
At this moment, the huge gate of the city opened with difficulty and slowly.
A dull 'quack' sound came, and the sound struck Song Liangchen's heart, making him ecstatic. Through the half-open door, Song Liangchen saw that there was a group of people fighting desperately at the gate of the city wall. Don't think about it, it must be King Han and Gao Gu!
Song Liangchen suddenly burst into his head with a burst of blood, where can he take care of a lot, his legs slammed into the belly of the horse and rushed towards the gate, roaring loudly: "King Han, King Han! Where are you! I'm here!"
An iron rod swung like a storm to block the oncoming arrows.
In the firelight of the night, Song Liangchen rode like a demon god descending from the sky, rushing towards the city gate, and his power was amazing!
The rebel generals had heard early on that there was a huge and extremely brave general in the Tang Army, who killed people like a demon, and he must be the one in front of him. These people, when they saw Song Liangchen who was rushing towards them, they immediately let out a burst of exclamation, they were already a little lacking in confidence, but now they were even more panicked.
Li Sheng was frightened at first when he saw Song Liangchen rushing out on a crazy single horse, and then he looked at it and saw that the gate of Xuanwu Gate was opening! He was immediately overjoyed and shouted loudly: "Brothers, all of you are rushing towards the city gate!"
The rebels at the head of the city were shocked when they saw this, and their bows and arrows shot more and more fiercely. But Li Sheng and the others had no scruples, facing the raindrops of bows and arrows on their heads, stepping on the corpses of their comrades, and frantically assaulting towards the city gate.
When Song Liangchen arrived, the city gate was just half open. The iron rod swept towards the rebels besieging Xiao Yunhe and the others, and immediately screamed, and there was no one within a radius.
"Song Liangchen, it's good to come!" Xiao Yunhe was wearing ordinary clothes and armor, mixed with a group of soldiers and was inconspicuous, and at this time, he shouted loudly, and Song Liangchen saw him.
"Dashuai is okay, right?" Song Liangchen asked in a loud voice, and at the same time, he jumped to Xiao Yunhe's side, turned over and got off the horse, "Dashuai, please get on the horse!"
Xiao Yunhe wiped the blood on his face, glanced at Song Liangchen heavily, turned over and jumped on horseback: "Be careful!"
"I'm fine! Dashuai is fine, I'll never be fine!" Song Liangchen laughed from the bottom of his heart, roared the tiger, picked up the big iron rod and plunged into the pile of rebels.
Xiao Yunhe got on the horse, and he was even more like a fish in water. Stab left and right, and fight your way through the rebels. Gao Gu and Song Liangchen were like tigers entering a flock of sheep, and the rebel soldiers surrounded them, but they couldn't get any benefits.
At this moment, the city gate was completely opened, and in a flash, a white light quickly jumped into the battle group, and a loud volley exploded: "Death to those who stand in my way!"
White Horse Silver Gun - Li Sheng!
Between the lightning and flint, Li Sheng picked up the gun in his hand with a pear blossom shadow, and let go of the two pawns like a dragonfly in water, and then leaned next to Xiao Yunhe, and asked anxiously, "Is the handsome handsome?"
"Okay!" Xiao Yunhe replied in a deep voice, and said loudly, "The time has come to pay for the blood debt!"
Li Sheng also gritted his teeth and roared: "Kill ——!"
The iron cavalry of the Shence Army, like mercury falling to the ground, rushed in from the city gate. The hundreds of rebels guarding the city gate could not resist at all, and they immediately collapsed and dispersed.
Thousands of strong soldiers, in a very short period of time, all of them assaulted into the Xuanwu Gate. The rebels guarding the city were frightened and rushed to the bottom of the tower, intending to fight the Shence army under the tower. Li Sheng sneered again and again, and picked up his bow with the iron cavalry of the Shence Army, and sent a big shot to the rebels who were crowded on the stairs of the city tower.
Iron hooves clanged, stepping on the stone pavements of the palace shook, and arrows flew like madness, with infinite resentment, just to take their lives!
There were bursts of screams, and the rebels, who were already a little chaotic, were blocked by the Shence Army near the staircase, and suffered heavy casualties. Many were even pushed off the city and fell to their deaths. There were even some rebels who had shrunk by the city wall in a limp state, and did not dare to show their heads or come down.
The enemy general shouted hoarsely to command the battle, and even slashed two enemy soldiers who were retreating backwards with his own sword, but he couldn't stop the chaos of the army.
After all, they are rebels, nameless and unkind divisions, and a rabble recruited temporarily, how can they stop the morale of all the people who are like rainbows and murderous gods!
Li Sheng raised his bow and shouted in a deep voice, and the arrow flashed with cold light, and flew towards the enemy general with a sharp roar. In an instant, the general screamed, and was shot through the skull in the right eye by an arrow, leaving almost half of the arrow feathers outside. His body was also squeezed down the stairs and fell heavily to the ground.
Seeing the tragic death of the main general, the rebel generals screamed in shock, and fled in all directions in even more confusion. Calling for his father and mother to trample on each other, like panicked sparrows began to flee in all directions. There were even some rebel soldiers who were surrounded in the war group, and they threw their weapons in a panic and knelt down with their heads in their hands, shouting loudly, 'spare your life, spare your life'!
Xiao Yunhe was overjoyed when he saw Li Sheng shoot and kill the enemy's general defending the city with one arrow, and said loudly: "Li Sheng, lead half of the men and horses with me to attack the Penglai Palace, and Gao Gu will lead the rest of the men and horses to clean up the battlefield of Xuanwumen." Those who refuse to surrender will be killed!"
"Yes!" the army shouted in unison. Some of the remaining generals of the rebels were frightened and no longer wanted to fight, so they abandoned their weapons and surrendered on their knees.
At the same time, Zhu Zhu, who was sitting high in the Penglai Hall with a steady victory, sat up in fright, and shouted with wide eyes: "What? There is a Tang army raiding the north gate of Daming Palace?!"
"Yes, yes!" said one of the generals, who had come to report the news, "and there were no less than five thousand people...... When the last general came to report the news, they were storming Chongxuanmen. ”
"We must hold it!" Zhu Jun shouted angrily, "Come, come! Transfer all my imperial soldiers and horses to guard the north gate of Daming Palace!"
As soon as the words fell, a person staggered in outside the door: "Report - Your Majesty, the big thing is not good!" Li Sheng led the Shence army to raid Beiyuan, and it only took a stick of incense to break through the Chongxuanmen, kill the North Street, and are currently storming the Xuanwu Gate!"
"What?!" Zhu Jun suddenly burst into flames above his head, jumping to his feet and shouting, "Where are my soldiers and horses, soldiers and horses! Go, go and defend the Xuanwu Gate!"
"Your Majesty!" a minister beside him hurriedly said, "Before, Chu Yan stormed the Chunming Gate, and most of the soldiers and horses in front of the emperor were transferred to reinforcements. In the entire Daming Palace, plus the scattered soldiers and horses on patrol, the number of people is less than 5,000. Now that the situation is tense, is His Majesty transferring some soldiers back from the West Gate of the national capital to relieve the urgent need for water and fire?"
"After a long time, you only said that you would die if you 'transferred troops back'?" Zhu Zhu almost wanted to raise his sword and cut down the slow minister, and roared angrily, "Go, call my men and horses back to escort!"
"Report ——" Another person rushed in, covered in blood and uneasy, and ran to Zhu Zhu and shouted urgently, "Your Majesty, the Tang army has an internal response in the palace, and it actually opened the Xuanwu Gate to let Li Sheng's army enter the palace - the Xuanwu Gate has been lost! Three thousand brothers, most of the dead and wounded. The Shence Army, currently coming towards Penglai Palace, is not far from here!"
Zhu Jun's face suddenly turned gray, his eyes revealed fear from the depths of his soul, and he muttered, "I don't need to say it, I ...... Hear me!"
The tsunami-like roar was surging towards this side with infinite anger and contempt.
The entire Penglai Hall seems to be shaking!
Zhu Zhu, you can indeed hear it clearly. His body suddenly became stiff and cold, and there was a buzzing in his head as if he was stunned, and it felt like he was in a dream, which was unbelievable.
"陛xià...... Run away!" A few people next to him shouted in panic, "If you slow down, it'll be too late!"
Some of the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace were already screaming in fright, and they ran around and hid. There were even some soldiers stationed in the outer hall who had just been recruited, and they also threw down their swords and guns in panic and slipped around in a panic.
The trees fell and scattered, and these people had no feelings for Zhu Jun, let alone swore allegiance to him. Don't run away now, but when!
"Withdraw, leave Daming Palace, go to Taiji Palace!" After all, Zhu Zhu was a person who had experienced a lot of wind and waves, and he barely calmed down at this time, and said to a few people around him, "Liao Da, you take the soldiers of Penglai Hall to open the road in front of you." I want to move to the Taiji Palace. Pass the order down, transfer all the soldiers and horses in front of the imperial palace back to Taiji Palace, and defend the West Inner Garden!"
Everyone was about to come down in response, when suddenly there were several screams and loud noises at the gate of the palace!
Two rebel pawns flew in in the air, fell to the ground with a convulsion and blood all over the ground, screaming and swallowing twice. The smashed, hollow door was also kicked and fell to the side, squeaking and shaking, and sawdust flying everywhere.
A person who was covered in blood like a demon god walked in slowly, and said in a deep voice in his unwarm voice: "It's too late, Zhu Jun rebel!"
Zhu swore that he had never seen that kind of look.
It was supposed to be a pair of eyes that were bloodshot with rage, but at the moment they were as calm as water, as if there had never been any emotional fluctuations. It can even be said that there is some sluggishness, because those eyes seem to be unconcerned about what they see.
Ignore!
It seems that under that look, there is not a single qiē, and all living beings are just ants and bubbles.
Zhu Jun was originally scared, but now he was a little annoyed. These days, he has become accustomed to giving orders from a high position, and no one has dared to ignore him like this.
"What person?" Zhu Jun asked with a strong voice. But when this sentence was spoken, even Zhu Jun himself felt that his voice was a little trembling, revealing a lot of timidity, and obviously lacking confidence.
On Xiao Yunhe's black armor, drops of blood were slowly dripping on the gorgeous carpet of the palace, step by step, approaching Zhu Jun.
"You don't deserve to know. Xiao Yunhe actually raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a completely evil smile.
He was actually laughing! Zhu Jun suddenly trembled all over his body for no reason - only a madman would laugh at such a time!
The moment before life and death fought to the death, he was actually laughing!
"Kill him!" Zhu Jun took two steps back and waved his hand to the few generals and guards beside him.
Even Zhu Jun had a fear from the bottom of his heart, not to mention the nobodies around him. The men trembled in panic for a while, but none of them moved forward.
Zhu Jun slowly stepped back, and kicked a general in front of him forward with an angry kick. The general suddenly instinctively let out a loud scream, drew his knife and slashed at Xiao Yunhe.
Xiao Yunhe snorted coldly, and easily avoided it with a sideways flash, and no longer cared about the person who swept past him. When the general saw that he couldn't strike a blow, he wanted to turn around and slash again, but then he suddenly woke up: crazy? If you don't run away at this time, when will you stay?
As soon as the thought passed, the man actually threw the knife and pulled out his legs and ran wildly. Zhu Jun became even more annoyed and angry, and scolded sharply: "Traitor!"
The sound of this voice was still there, and a human head was thrown in through the doorway, rolling on the carpet and turning several times, leaving a large pool of blood. Everyone saw that it was the general who had just run out.
"Who else is coming?" Xiao Yunhe sneered, not caring about the people around Zhu Zhu at all, just looking at Zhu Zhu without blinking. Zhu Jun felt that those two eyes, like ice picks in winter, directly inserted into the deepest part of his heart, making him flustered and chilling.
The only few people around Zhu Jun screamed in panic and fell to the ground one after another: "I'm waiting for the surrender, the surrender!"
"Get out. Xiao Yunhe spit out two words without hurry, and these people hurriedly climbed out.
Such ants, Xiao Yunhe didn't even bother to look at them more.
In a palace in Ruoda, only Zhu Zhu, who was dressed in an imperial robe and full of panic, and Xiao Yunhe, who was cold and bloody, were left.
Zhu Jun retreated step by step, and finally retreated to the desk in the imperial study, and the back of his foot touched the stairs, and he almost fell down.
"Hmph!" Xiao Yunhe laughed again. The smile is getting weirder and weirder.
"You're a general!" Zhu Jun shouted in a trembling voice, "I recognize you." What do you want to do?!"
"What do you say?" Xiao Yunhe held the hand of the hilt of the sword and slowly raised it. A cold light spilled out of the scabbard. There was a soft roar in the air, as if the sword was whispering.
Zhu Jun had no way to retreat, his back was against the desk, and he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "The tiger falls into Pingyang as a dog bully, if you want to kill, you will kill, there is no need to say more!"
"Who is the tiger and who is the dog?" Xiao Yunhe caressed the sword body with the two fingers of his left hand as if no one was around, and said leisurely like a poem, "The name of the sword is 'Chengying', a peerless good sword." Today, it is a pity to use it to slaughter an animal that is not even as good as a pig or a dog!"
"What nonsense!" Zhu Jun knew that he was going to die, and he was so frightened that he became furious, shouting, "Kill it, kill it, don't abol......ish it again!"
Before the word 'words' fell, the sword light in Xiao Yunhe's hand flashed, and one of Zhu Zhu's left arms flew up in the air, and the blood mist sprayed, and he suddenly let out a miserable scream.
"This sword is a gift from the people of the world!" Xiao Yunhe's face was as cold as a thousand years of ice, and the look in his eyes also contained more meaning, complex and poignant.
Zhu Jun covered his broken arm, bared his teeth and screamed a few times, and ran to the side out of the instinct of survival.
"Hum ......" another sword, piercing the void, let out a low roar like a dragon's groan, flashing sharply from Zhu Zhu's left leg.
Zhu Jun screamed again, and his whole body suddenly lost his balance and fell to the side with a bang. The left leg had fallen from the knee and had fallen to the side.
Blood flowed like a column.
Xiao Yunhe's face became more and more calm and cold. At this time, he was like a shaman who presided over the ceremony, and his voice was low and solemn: "This sword is a gift from the soldiers of the Great Qi who died in the war!"
There was a "bang" sound, and another sword was swung. "This sword was given by the prince of the Li family, the son of the dragon, who was slaughtered by you!"
"This sword is given by the eight desolations of the Great Qi!"
The four swords were cut down, and Zhu Jun's limbs were separated, and he had turned into a human stick, lying in a pool of blood and convulsing non-stop. With the last bit of strength, he muttered, "Give it a good time!"
Xiao Yunhe lifted Zhu Zhu's head, staring at Zhu Zhu's eyes full of fear, and the smile on his face was obviously full of murderous intent.
Zhu Jun sighed in a trembling voice: "Becoming a king and defeating a villain." I didn't expect to lose to such a notoriously wasteful ...... Take my head and ask for a reward!"
Xiao Yunhe whispered leisurely in his ear: "The last sword, is ...... Emperor Taizong of Great Qi, 'with his own hands'!"
Zhu Jun, who was already half-dead, widened his eyes in shock, and saw the strange man in front of him, and was about to let out an exclamation, when a cold light had flashed in front of his eyes.
The Chengying Sword is indeed a good sword. Cut through the limbs, like tofu. At the last moment, Zhu Jun may not have too much pain. In its place, there is a chest full of grievances that can never be resolved.
Xiao Yunhe lifted Zhu Zhu's head, stood up, listened to the sound of blood dripping in his ears, and glanced around at the Penglai Palace, which had been occupied by Zhu Zhu for a long time.
In the blink of an eye, a hundred years have passed. Who would have thought that after so many years, I, Xiao Yunhe, would personally carry a sword in my hand, like a butcher, in this place like a splendid paradise, and cut up thousands of corpses of a person in several pieces.
Just now, the moment Xiao Yunhe raised his feet and stepped into the Penglai Palace, he was originally like a heart lake with angry waves draining ravines, and suddenly it was like a layer of solid ice on the surface of the lake. Facing Zhu Jun, who fell into his hands and had a gritted hatred, he didn't know how to face it for a while.
Hatred, hatred, or thinking of the situation of the Great Qi, thinking of countless heroic souls floating in the sky, but there is a sore feeling that penetrates deep into the bone marrow? The state of mind before the revenge is revenge can only be described as strange and complex. Sweet and sour, mixed with flavors.
Perhaps beneath the thick ice, the waves are still raging.
He took his steps and walked out of Penglai Hall slowly, but his steps suddenly became a little heavy inexplicably, and his body seemed to have some prostration. Suddenly, he had a bit of a lost illusion. When he killed Zhu Jun just now, was the cruel and cold-blooded, hideous-faced executioner really himself?
Outside the hall, thousands of soldiers of the Shence Army stood there in a uniform formation. Seeing Xiao Yunhe walking out, he shouted in unison: "Handsome!"
It seems that the war in the Daming Palace can already be declared over. With the speed of thunder and lightning, the Shence army destroyed Zhu Zhu's lair like a withering and decaying one, and in a flash of lightning, all the rebel henchmen had been wiped out.
Xiao Yunhe took a few steps out and looked up.
In the black sky, the stars and the moon were gone, and only the clouds were faintly seen flying away. The bleak autumn wind brought a bloody breath, as if to tell the people that the magnificent palace in the past had become a purgatory on earth at this time.
The ice of the heart lake seems to suddenly shatter in an instant. A raging wave of rage rushed out.
Wan Xu returned to the sect, Xiao Yunhe asked the heavens......
Li Sheng, Song Liangchen, Gao Gu and thousands of soldiers were surprised to see that the King of Han, who was carrying Zhu Zhu's head, suddenly knelt down heavily to the west and lifted Zhu Zhu's head above his head with both hands.
"The great Qi martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the country!" Xiao Yunhe's all his sorrow and pride erupted at this moment.
His voice, already a little hoarse and out of tune, can even be said to be distorted-
"Look!"
"Your blood is not shed in vain!"
"Today, I will use Zhu Zhu's head to feed your spirit in the sky!"
Thousands of soldiers were shocked by this hoarse voice. The cavalry dismounted, the infantry abandoned their guns, and the wounded did not want the support of their teammates, they all knelt down in unison, and shouted in a deep voice: "...... handsome."
Xiao Yunhe was already in tears and trembling.
"The sky and the earth, the ancestors and the spirits, and the billions of people of the Great Qi!"
"Zhu Zhu has been extinguished, Daqi will win—— glory of Daqi, forever shining in China!"
Thousands of people roared from the depths of their souls - "Zhu Zhu is gone, Daqi will win—— glory of Daqi, forever shining Huaxia!"
This is the loudest and most shocking sound tonight, overshadowing the shouting and killing at any moment in the past, like rolling thunder, surging into the sky layer by layer.
Xiao Yunhe finally showed a smile of relief: I hope those heroic souls who are leisurely wandering between the clouds and mountains can hear our voices......
The news that the Daming Palace was breached and the Penglai Palace was destroyed, and the defeated rebels who fled quickly spread throughout the imperial city and even the national capital. The rebels, who were already thieves and had no unity at all, lost the foundation of the big tree of Zhu Zhu, and suddenly collapsed like a rotten dead tree.
They are traitors without faith, and when the only spiritual sustenance is over, they become fragile and numb like walking corpses. The generals and officials of the size of the rebels all knew that Zhu Zhu was finished, and the so-called 'Great Qin' dynasty had fallen. These people have become rootless wanderers, and it is impossible to stir up the wind and waves again. The most important thing is ...... Earn your own life!
Song Liangchen tied Zhu Zhu's hair to his iron rod, held his head high and galloped around in the imperial city, and roared in his thunderous voice: "The commander of the Tang Army, Lord Han Wang's military order: Zhu Zhu has been destroyed, and the rest of the people who are willing to abandon their weapons and surrender will be pardoned and dealt with lightly." Those who resist will be killed!"
More than a thousand Iron Horsemen of the Divine Command Army followed behind him, and like a megaphone, the sound quickly spread throughout the entire Imperial City. Originally, there were still many rebels scattered in the imperial city who were patrolling and guarding martial law, and when they heard this voice, they threw their swords and guns and knelt on the ground to ask for surrender. In order to please the new master in the future, some young generals and colonels led their subordinates to 'generosity and sincerity', acting as pioneers, all the way from Penglai in Daming Palace to Taiji Palace. The rebels stationed in the Taiji Palace were already panicked and unconfident, and when they saw that their companions had turned against each other, nine out of ten people opened the city gates and surrendered. Song Liangchen, the pioneer of the Divine Strategy, almost did not use any knives and guns, and swept all the way through the Daming Palace and Taiji Palace, which was even smoother and faster than expected.
Soon, the news of the collapse of the imperial city and the execution of Zhu Zhu also spread to the area of Chunmingmen in the West Gate. The rebels who were fighting to the death against Chu Yan's army here suddenly fell into a huge panic. They are like lone wolves trapped in a siege, without foreign aid and without spiritual support. wanted to fight back against the imperial city, but the dragons were leaderless. In addition to continuing to fight endlessly with Chu Yan's army, and then finally being surrounded and exterminated by regiments, it seems to have become their established fate. These people are not like the rebels in the imperial city, they fought to the death with Chu Yan's army all night, killing countless Tang troops. How could Daqi spare them?
Several leading rebel generals gathered nervously for a while, feeling that surrender was absolutely not feasible, and the only way to do this was to resist the offensive of Chu Yan's army, and then see if it was possible to counterattack the imperial city. Zhu Jun is dead, can't he be like him and sit in the Dragon Court?
In the face of flanking attacks and encirclement, these people not only felt lucky, but also couldn't help but dream of spring and autumn.
On the side of the railing of the palace in front of the Penglai Hall of Daming Palace, Xiao Yunhe and Li Sheng stood back and forth, looking high and far away.
Li Sheng had been standing quietly behind Xiao Yunhe, waiting for Xiao Yunhe to issue the last military order. After so many years in the army, it was the first time he had met a commander like King Han who was worthy of his respect and expectation. In fact, when he first put forward the idea of 'attacking the Nine Gates and taking Beiyuan', Li Sheng already had a very detailed and clear combat plan in his heart. As long as Xiao Yunhe asks again, he will confess to him. That plan, steady and steady, just like his Li Sheng's personality, meticulous and steady, if you want to capture the national capital, it is not impossible. It's just that the cost of casualties may be greater, and the time will drag on a little longer. But what made him strange was that he just started up, and the king of Han didn't ask any more questions later. This incident also made Li Sheng a little angry. Until a few days ago, he was suddenly invited by Xiao Yunhe to the Shuai tent and learned of such a strange and crazy marching plan.
This battle was so easy and unexpected. The Tang army, with a total of 40,000 horses, actually swept Zhu Zhu's lair overnight, and victory was in sight. Li Sheng couldn't help but admire this weak crown of the Han King from the bottom of his heart. He actually put himself to death first as a surprise soldier, and at the same time did not hesitate to let the main army as a disguise, regardless of casualties, he attacked head-on with all his might, thus containing more than seventy percent of the rebels. When the sharp knife of the Shence Army was fiercely inserted into Zhu Jun's henchmen, the whole war took a shocking reversal. It is surprisingly not easy to avoid the real and the virtual, and the Tang Army will win.
Li Sheng secretly thought in his heart: Strange, ruthless, accurate, and fast are the keys to the success of this sneak attack. It is not easy for a commander to do this. Not to mention...... He's still so young. Thinking of me, with such a figure, why should I, Li Sheng, worry about getting old day by day? Now that I think about it, he didn't ask me in detail about my marching plan at the beginning, because he was afraid that he would not be able to adopt it in the end and worry that I would not be able to get off the stage, right?
Li Sheng's face showed some relieved smiles: King Han, genius Yang or ghost talent?...... I, Li Sheng, have only served you in my life.
Xiao Yunhe has been looking at the southwest direction as quietly as a pine, listening to the sound of the fierce battle of the army over there. The expression on his face was very calm. At this moment, his heart became ethereal, and he didn't think about anything. When all the emotions in his heart were vented, he turned into the calm and focused Xiao Yunhe again, looking down at the Yiqiē in front of him.
The autumn wind swept the fallen leaves, adding a solemn and gloomy smell to the splendid Penglai Palace. The blood flowing everywhere was even more dazzling and hideous.
After a long time, the shouts of killing on the side of the West Gate became louder and louder. Xiao Yunhe frowned slightly, and knew in his heart that this was the rebels stationed at the West Gate, thinking that there was no hope of survival, and they were fighting the trapped beasts. At this moment, Song Liangchen sent someone from the Taiji Palace in front of him to send news that almost all the rebels in the imperial city had surrendered. The pioneer of Shence has occupied the south gate of the imperial city, the Suzaku Gate, and completely mastered the entire imperial city. Just wait for the generalissimo to give an order, and you can flank the rebels in Xicheng from behind.
Xiao Yunhe exhaled softly and said to Li Sheng: "Good weapon, put up the trumpet cannon and inform Chu Yan, who is attacking the West Gate, to let him withdraw his troops." In addition, the order goes down. The officers and men of the Shence Army shall not indiscriminately kill any rebel soldiers and officials and subordinates who have surrendered, shall not take or destroy anything in the palace, and shall not harm any palace maids, eunuchs and servants. Guarding the Suzaku Gate, not a single soldier is allowed to leave the imperial city. Those who violate the order will be severely punished by military law!"
"Yes!" Li Sheng replied and strode away to run errands.
Immediately, three thunderclaps were heard in mid-air, and three red horn cannons exploded prominently in the night sky. Everyone's eyes were attracted by the colorful cannon that pierced the night sky.
Chu Yan, who was standing outside the Chunming Gate with a tense heartstring, saw these three horn cannons with his own eyes, and his heart suddenly trembled, and a sour feeling accompanied by uncontrollable excitement surged into his heart.
Han Wang and Li Sheng, succeeded!
Zhu Zhu, it's over!
Chu Yan gritted his teeth and swallowed a mouthful of saliva fiercely, and said loudly: "Bring the hammer, the golden cymbals are waiting!"
"Yes!" Several pawns immediately moved forward, pushing a cart carrying huge gold cymbals and bronze bells, and handed a large hammer to Chu Yan's hand.
Chu Yan jumped into the car in a fit of fact, picked up the sledgehammer, and slammed it on the golden cymbal and bronze bell.
"Boom, bang!" There were several loud noises, almost shattering Chu Yan's eardrums - the general of the unified army, he personally sounded gold!
"Brothers, retreat!" Chu Yan mustered up the strength of his life and shouted hysterically, "Retreat! Retreat!"
He felt a stinging pain in his eyes, and he almost burst into tears. Within two hours, tens of millions of people were killed in this bloody battle like moths to fire. When victory finally came, Chu Yan, who had been a general for half his life, never thought that there would be such a day when he would shout the word 'retreat' so justifiably and generously.
Heroes, you can go home after victory, and you don't have to die in battle!
Along the edge of the ten-mile-long national capital, all the officers and soldiers of the Tang Army heard the loud sound of the ringing gold this time. The soldiers, who had sacrificed their lives, took one last look at the rebels who had killed their brothers, and retreated like a tide with the corpses of some of their fallen comrades.
The rebels defending the city looked at the retreating Tang troops, and they all withdrew their hearts that were raised to their throats. When he came to his senses, he looked at it again, and those Tang troops didn't look like they were defeated and retreated. Let's take a look at my own situation...... It doesn't seem good. Outside the city was the main force of the Tang army, and the imperial city had fallen. Although they have a strong numerical advantage, they have become caged beasts, and whether they are dead or alive is not in their own hands.
Xiao Yunhe rode a horse and had already arrived in front of the Suzaku Gate. Standing proudly on the top of the city and staring down, he couldn't help but think in his heart: A few months ago, Yao Lingyan slaughtered countless princes of the Li family and my Xiao Yunhe's dragon grandson in front of this gate in front of 'a general'......
Xiao Yunhe picked up Zhu Zhu's head and stretched it out of the city wall, and whispered: Look away!
Fake a shot to confuse the public, and go straight to capture the thief and capture the king with a single knife. It is such a simple and practical tactic that makes the seemingly invulnerable and impregnable national capital city be breached overnight.
When the news reached the capital, the people in the city could hardly believe their ears - the strongest city in the world could fall overnight?
Before, more than ninety percent of the people were ready to be besieged for a long time and stay at home. During the period of war and chaos, even places like the capital were not safe, Zhu Zhu, the grass head king in the troubled times, dominated the monkey and crowned the monkey, and did power in the capital, not letting the people suffer less. Now that the king has returned and recovered the imperial capital, the people in the city have finally breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter how unbearable the current Great Qi is, in the hearts of the people, it is still orthodox. Moreover, after Zhu Jun and his gang occupied the national capital, they robbed the people's property, fish and meat neighborhoods, bullied men and women, and ran rampant. Although it has only been a few months, the people in the national capital already hate Zhu Zhu and others.
Now it's good, Zhu Zhu is ambushed, and the banner of Daqi is fluttering in the imperial city again. The residents of the four squares of Taiping, Shanhe, Xingdao, and Wuben, which are closest to Suzaku Gate, were naturally the first to know the news. can live in the four squares closest to the imperial city, and most of these people are naturally nobles or wealthy families. These people are all some well-known figures, although Zhu Jun didn't treat them well, but he didn't come to extort money and find some trouble. While these people hated Zhu to death, they couldn't help but miss the Great Qi court. After the news that the Suzaku Gate was occupied by the Tang Army, the pot exploded first in these four squares, and many people walked out of their homes and gathered to clap their hands in celebration. There are even some bold ones, who came out of the village to Suzaku Street, and they had to see the Daqi flag fluttering on the head of Suzaku City with their own eyes.
