Wang Xianzhi and Huang Chao's preparations have been completed, Ke Ri is out of the division, Wang Xianzhi and Shang Rangqin led 30,000 cavalry grass troops to Yunzhou. After Wang Xianzhi was pulled, Huang Chao ordered his brother Huang Hua to bring hundreds of people, play more "yellow" banners, and also go to Yunzhou, while he and Qiu Ji took more than 8,000 people to Yanzhou in the starry night. Most of the 8,000 men were light horsemen, and they only brought a day's dry rations and some siege equipment.

Wang Xianzhi led a large army to attack Yuncheng, the capital of Yunzhou, and although Puzhou Shangjun was wary of the north, he still sent thousands of cavalry to reinforce Wang Xianzhi. Wang Xianzhi's soldiers were well fed, surrounded Yuncheng on all sides, and attacked day and night. Yunzhou Assassin Shi saw that Wang Xianzhi's army was attacking, the momentum was like thunder, and he was shattered for a while, and he was very frightened, and he didn't dare to leave the city without permission, so he had to ask for help from the Yanhai Jiedu envoy.

Yanzhou Flawed Hill, Yanhai Jiedu envoy Qi Kerang is discussing with the generals about aiding Yunzhou.

Qi Ke said: "The grass army is very urgent to besiege Yuncheng, I want to transfer the soldiers of the city and Jinxiang to relieve the siege, what do the generals think?"

As soon as the words fell, I saw a person from His Royal Highness, got up and said: "The last general thinks that the soldiers of Jinxiang can be called, but Rencheng is the western barrier of Yanzhou, and it must not be moved!"

Qi Kerang shook his head and said: "Jinxiang is far away from Yuncheng, and the number of troops is limited, if you don't call in Rencheng's troops, how can you help?"

The man replied: "But if the grass army separates and goes straight to the flawed hill, without any obstruction in the city, Yanzhou will be in danger!"

Qi Kerang said with a smile: "If the grass army does not go to Yunzhou, how can they get to Yanzhou? Besides, Wang Xianzhi, Shang Rang, Huang Chao and others are all in Yuncheng, and Shang Junchang is in Puzhou, who else dares to attack my Yanzhou?"

The man still wanted to fight, but was told back by Qi Ke: "Don't you know the story of 'cold lips and teeth'? If you lose Yunzhou, it will be the danger of Yanzhou!"

So, Qi Kerang ordered the soldiers and horses of Rencheng and Jinxiang to go to Yuncheng to relieve the siege at night. After receiving Qi Kerang's military order, Hao Gu, the defender of Rencheng, said angrily: "Rencheng is the western gateway to Yanhai, how can you withdraw your troops!" wanted to disobey, but was persuaded by his subordinates to "disobey the military order", Hao Gu had to lead his troops out of the city. Before leaving, Hao Gu made proper arrangements, and told the soldiers who defended the city not to slack off and defend the city to the death.

When Huang Chao arrived outside the city of Jinxiang, it was already late, and he saw the soldiers of Jinxiang going out of the city from afar, and his heart was happy. When he walked away, Huang Chao led the army to quietly set up a ladder and go up the wall. At this time, the soldiers defending the city of Jinxiang were still in their dreams, and they were easily captured by the grass army for recreation with Zhou Gong. Huang Chao left some people to occupy the city, did not leak a single rumor, and led the army to Rencheng overnight.

Wei Qimu has a hundred schools of learning, and he is also quite involved in marching battles, this time he wanted to show his strength with the army, but he didn't want Huang Chao to take Jinxiang silently, and he sighed that the official army was so lazy, how could he not be defeated?

When I arrived in Rencheng, I saw that the city was brightly lit and well guarded, and there were sergeants patrolling the city and the city.

Huang Chao sighed: "In the end, it is the Yanhai barrier, the defense is so tight, didn't the soldiers of Rencheng be transferred?"

Qiu Ji's eyesight is far beyond ordinary people, he can see it clearly, and said: "Otherwise, I see that there are more flags in this city, but it is just a bluff, and the army has already been transferred." ”

Huang Chao took a closer look at the city again, and saw that the sergeant was slightly insufficient, so he nodded and praised it, and even Huang Zhen felt that what Qiu Ji said was very reasonable. Only Wei Qimu was impatient in his heart, and he had already seen the truth in this, but he didn't have a chance to speak.

Qiu Ji saw that Huang Zhen agreed with him, and then continued: "Let Elder Leng lead people to restrain the soldiers under the city, and then I will lead people to touch the head of the city, restrain the defenders in the city, open the city gate, and enlarge the army to enter." What does my uncle think?"

Huang Chao thought so, so Leng Lie and Qiu Ji split into two, each brought some good hands, and went straight to the city. Huang Zhen thought it was funny, so he had to follow him to the city, but Wei Qimu couldn't help him, so he had to follow. And, of course, Zhu Wen.

Leng Lie and others have martial arts, and it is easy to put down ordinary soldiers. Qiu Ji, Wei Qimu and others were also people with sharp figures, and they easily touched the root of the city wall, threw the claws of the flying tiger one by one, stuck the city wall, and began to climb the city. Qiu Ji only bent his knees and jumped, which was two feet high, and it was already the limit. The city wall was smooth and there was nowhere to focus, but when Qiu Ji was about to slide, he slapped his hands against the wall and turned over the city with his strength. Wei Qimu and Huang Zhen saw it clearly, and on the city wall where the palm fell was a pair of concave handprints! This palm was very different from Qiu Ji's previous palm, although there was no momentum at all, and it was almost silent, but it was full of power from the palm. Wei Qimu and Huang Zhen are both masters of martial arts, and when they saw this, they knew that Qiu Ji's kung fu was already at the peak.

Everyone jumped on the top of the city, and soon subdued the defenders of the city, especially Qiu Ji, who shot like the wind, and the enemy fell to the wind.

Huang Chao attacked the two cities in one night, especially Rencheng, which was equivalent to opening the gate of Yanzhou. The army rested and recuperated, and then marched towards the Blemish Hill.

In the city of Bianqiu, Qi Kerang was drinking and having fun with his concubine, enjoying the dance, when he suddenly heard the sound of cannons outside the city, he was shocked, and asked, "What ......is this?" What's going on?"

Everyone in the house was at a loss, and at this moment, the sergeant outside the door came to report: "Lord Jiedu, it's not good, Huang ...... Huang Chao, he hit the city!"

When Qi Kerang heard the word "Yellow Nest", he stood up and exclaimed, "How is it possible! Isn't the other person in Yuncheng?"

But listening to the sound of cannons outside the city, Zi Kerang sat down and sighed: "The old man has been fighting horses all his life, and he has fallen into the scheme of the bandits to divert the tiger from the mountain!"

Zike was unwilling, he expected that there were not many soldiers and horses in Huangchao, so he put on his horse and personally supervised the battle.

Huangchao has begun to attack the city, stone cannons rush cars, cloud ladders and arrows, and the battlefield is in flames for a while. Huang Chao did not sneak attack like before this time, but chose to attack head-on and fight in all directions. Bianqiu is the capital of Yanzhou, and capturing it is equivalent to occupying the entire Yanzhou.

Although there are not many soldiers led by Huang Chao, they are all elite divisions with extremely strong combat power. The four brothers of the single family and Zhu Wen are all in the lead, charging ahead, and Qiu Ji and the people of the Zhutang Association are even more vigorous.

Wei Qimu was in high spirits, and Huang Zhen was marching forward. Halfway through, Wei Qimu saw from a distance that the first wave of the grass army's offensive had been blocked, and suddenly blood was floating like leaves, and corpses were falling like mud. The grass army still went forward one after another, shouting and roaring, forgetting life and death, some were pierced through the chest by arrows, some were crushed by boulders, and some fell down the ladder and fell to the ground. The image in his eyes made Wei Qimu fall into a struggle, his chest and blood were still stirring and boiling with the charge of the soldiers, it was the courage to see death as home, and it was the kind of heroism that commanded the storm. But in his eyes and brain, blood stains and wandering spirits slowly began to appear, it was the ruthlessness of slaughtering like mowing grass, and the sorrow of life like mustard seeds.

Wei Qimu was on the battlefield, but he couldn't help but think of the words of Master Guanxiu of Yicheng Temple - "Bodhisattvas are afraid of causes, and sentient beings are afraid of results." If he hadn't said this sentence deep in his heart, he might have been killing like a sergeant at this time. But when he became murderous, this sentence inexplicably haunted his mind, inspiring the kindness and compassion in his heart, and making him fall into confusion and contradiction. The "compassion" of this Buddhism has something in common with the "non-action" of Taoism, the "non-attack" of Mohism, and the "benevolence" of Confucianism. Wei Qimu felt immersed in it at this time, unable to extricate himself, until he heard the shout of "Qimu, Qimu ......" in a trance, and then woke up leisurely.

Wei Qimu realized that at this time, he was still standing on a horse in the middle of the battlefield, and Huang Zhen on the side was pulling his arm with an anxious face. Huang Zhen finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his mind was turning, guessing that he couldn't bear the fierceness of this fight, so he comforted him and said, "Let's go back, the battlefield is like this, but it is not suitable for you and me." ”

Wei Qimu saw that Huang Zhen understood his thoughts, and he was grateful. At this time, although he was on the battlefield, his eyes were infinitely merciful, and he had no fighting spirit and pride, and he retreated back with Huang Zhen at the moment, and the killing around him could no longer make his blood boil.

Retiring from the battle is a crime of killing the head, but the two of them have special identities, Wei Qimu is not a member of the grass army, although Huang Zhen is the daughter of Huang Chao, but she is in the grass army as the heir of the Yin and Yang family, so they don't care about the advance and retreat of this battlefield.

Wei Qimu couldn't bear to continue this war, so he asked Huang Zhen to take him to Huang Chao. Huang Chao saw that the two of them had retreated, but he didn't say anything, just paid attention to the battle.

Wei Qimu said: "General, I have a plan to go down this city." ”

Although Huang Chao already knew that Wei Qimu was not Qiu Ji's entourage, and also knew that he had been famous for a while, he listened to his words at this moment but did not think so, in his opinion, it was only a matter of time before the city was broken.

Wei Qimu guessed Huang Chao's thoughts, pressed the displeasure in his heart, and continued: "Although the general can attack this city, he will also lose more than half of himself, and it is difficult to have the strength to fight again.

When Huang Chao heard this, his heart moved, and he said, "Oh, what is Wei Shaoxia's good plan?"

Wei Qimu said: "Now that the grass army is surrounded on all sides, the officers and soldiers have no way to retreat, so they have to fight the trapped beasts, it is better to let go of the north and give them a way to escape, then the hearts of the officers and soldiers to defend the city will be relaxed." In addition, 'husband fights, courage also', it is better to shoot a book into the city, on which is written 'General Wang has broken through Yunzhou and is coming to Yanzhou, persuade him to surrender' and the like. In this way, the morale of the officers and soldiers will inevitably be completely lost, and the flaws can be broken in one fell swoop. ”

After hearing this, Huang Chao nodded unconsciously, and said secretly, "Although this kid is not good-looking, he also has some talent." And so he decreed.

Huang Zhen listened to Wei Qimu talking eloquently on the side, her head was the way, and she was also proud, and she bragged in front of Huang Chao again, making Wei Qimu laugh. Huang Chao looked at the two of them, his mind was incomprehensible, and he moved his gaze to the battlefield again.

Sure enough, according to what Wei Qimu said, the hearts of the officers and soldiers suddenly collapsed, and at this time, many grass troops had already attacked the city and launched street battles, especially Qiu Ji and Zhu Wen, who took the lead in the city, and no one in the officers and soldiers could stop them. Qi Kerang read the book of shooting in the city, and said angrily: "The soldiers of Rencheng and Jinxiang have gone to Yuncheng, where can Wang Xianzhi be so easy to get it?"

Although Zikerrang knew that it was a plan, it was difficult to prevent the army's morale from collapsing. At this time, he saw that he could not stop drinking, and he hated it in his heart, and saw that the soldiers no longer had the heart to fight to the death, so he inevitably mutinied, so he had to order the withdrawal from the north gate.

Huang Chao saw that the flawed hill had been broken, so he entered the city to settle the people.

Wei Qimu was reluctant to enter the city to see the miserable scene, and said to Huang Zhen: "Shi'er, let's go to Cheng's to find a few of them?" Although he knew Huang Zhen's real name, he still called her "Shi'er" to remember his first acquaintance.

Huang Zhen wanted to go to Chengshi, and when she heard Wei Qimu's words, it was exactly what she wanted, but she was afraid that her father would not allow it, so after hesitating, she simply decided to go secretly without Huang Chao, so she nodded and agreed to Wei Qimu's proposal.

When Wei Qimu saw Huang Zhen's head, he finally sulked, took Huang Zhenrou and took her from the horse, wrapped her in front of him, and let the two of them ride together. Huang Zhen was angry softly, but she didn't stop it too much. Wei Qimu was happy in his heart, and whipped his horse away.

After the Huangchao broke the flawed hill, the rest of the cities in Yanzhou fell to the wind, and soon all the cities fell. Huang Chao sat in the flawed hill, and in terms of meritorious deeds, in addition to Qiu Ji, Zhu Wen made the most contributions, which made Huang Chao look at this stupid man with admiration. Huang Chao wanted to reward Wei Qimu for his contributions, but found that Wei Qimu and his daughter had gone to the Cheng clan, although he was unhappy in his heart, but he did not show it in this scene. Qiu Ji saw that Huang Zhen was not there, and he was also unhappy in his heart, and he was not relieved until he had passed three rounds of drinking.
