Wang Wenyao rushed back with 800 cavalry, and he had already galloped around the city of Lizhou, and the four city gates in the southeast, northwest, and north could not enter the city.

It's not that the gates of Lizhou City can't be opened, but that Wang Wenyao doesn't dare to order the people in the city to open them.

Because the chasing soldiers behind are too close, if you are present

After opening the city gate, it is likely that he has not entered the city yet, and the pursuers will rush to the city first.

Wang Wenyao's heart was in a hurry, but he couldn't find a way to get rid of the chasing soldiers, so he only continued to circle around the city.

"When it was almost over, the two major generals immediately ordered the troops to speed up, insert themselves in front of the enemy's infantry from the left and right flanks, complete the encirclement of the more than 3,000 infantry troops outside the south gate of Lizhou City, and order them to disarm and surrender. ”

Heligen saw that the huge figure of Lizhou City had appeared in his sight, and the game of cat and mouse could be over, so he smiled and said the third step of his tactics to Chang Delin.

The battlefield has always been the best class, and all the intrigues and tricks seem so clear, the rhythm is clear, and when you look back carefully, there is a unique beauty in it.

This is a real soldier who can appreciate the beauty of the charm, a cruel and wonderful complex charm.

Knowing that there were so many ways to lead troops to fight, it was just a moment, Chang Delin felt that the experience of the past half an hour was more than the knowledge he had learned in the past nineteen years combined.

The Art of War: The whole city is the first, and the city is broken.

took Lizhou City, Heligen did not use a knife or a gun, and he was completely bloodless.

He only shouted: "We don't want to kill, we just take back our territory." You have only one way to go now, and that is to surrender immediately. Once this is over, you are free to choose. ”

"As long as you promise not to harm the people of the land, your lives will be saved, and you will be able to leave. You can also choose to stay, and if you can get through our selection, you still have the opportunity to be a soldier and eat food. If you don't want to continue to be a soldier after staying, we will naturally give each of you five acres of fertile land. ”

Wang Wenyao, the enemy's main general, did not find a chance to enter the city in the end.

Chang Delin and Tang Da surrounded the enemy's more than 3,000 infantry troops outside the south gate, and Heligen wanted to achieve two goals.

The first purpose is to let the enemy troops defending the city on the city tower see it, and this most realistic deterrent is also a kind of guidance.

In the second month, it blocked the ring road, so that Wang Wenyao crashed in when he came around with 800 cavalry in the second circle, and it was too late to turn back.

There were no surprises in how things went, so Heligan ordered his soldiers to shout.

"You are the defenders of Changde City?"

The enemy's main general, Wang Wenyao, had already dismounted, wiping his sweat and panting. Anyway, he couldn't escape, so he didn't continue to resist stubbornly, and he looked very single.

But looking at the words "Left Pioneer of the Changde City Garrison" on the banner behind Chang Delin, Wang Wenyao still asked the doubts in his heart.

"Now that we have seen it, what do you ask? Upon receiving the news of your attack, King Yongsheng ordered us to provide emergency relief and then garrison on the spot. ”

Regarding this question, Helangen was worried that others would answer casually, so he took the initiative to speak this time: "As for the guard who you originally investigated, he has been arrested and executed by our prince because of the delay in the military aircraft. ”

The name of Zhu Youlang, the king of Yongsheng, must be made clear, Helangen is worried that Chang Delin and Tang Da will not do anything, and accidentally say "My master is the bear prince", it will be bad.

"No, not really!" The enemy general shook his head: "We have already broken through three royal palaces, and the court has never seen such a powerful force as yours." ”

Helangen said in a cold voice: "How can you understand the eloquence of our prince? He has many elite soldiers and fierce generals, and we have the worst garrison. Okay, what are you going to do now? Do you still want to fight?"

The battle came to an abrupt end, and Wang Wenyao, the commander and powerful general of the "Generalissimo of Fengtian Righteousness" Li Zicheng, and his 6,000 horse infantry troops all surrendered.

All the people set up camp in five miles outside the south gate of Lizhou City, a total of six large camps formed a plum blossom array, and the periphery was the 4,000 infantry army transferred by Helangen from Changde City. All the cavalry who were on the mission of chasing the enemy in the early stage are now gone.

This is also very understandable, in the past ten years, whenever the rebel army is cornered, it has become a norm to surrender, accept the appeasement of the imperial court, and then continue to rebel.

Helangen had been in Loudi for several years, and had rushed to Hengyang Wangcheng many times to attend meetings of senior generals, and had a comprehensive understanding of various situations in the interior, which was also the basis for him to make temporary adjustments and take advantage of the situation to recover Lizhou City.

For Wang Wenyao's surrender, Heligen didn't take it too seriously, so he didn't say much to him, let alone "let him abandon the darkness and turn to the light".

Helengen's main task now is to completely take over the city of Lizhou, eliminate the sequelae of the original governor Li Qiande and the general soldier Kong Xigui, who abandoned the military equipment, restore the order that was messed up by Wang Yaowen, and turn the city into his own jurisdiction.

In the process of being busy, time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was three days, and the main force led by Guan Datou finally arrived outside the city of Lizhou.

When the long dragon of cannons and ballista carts passed through the six prisoner camps, Wang Wenyao and other high-level generals finally changed color, and those ordinary soldiers began to whisper.

Guan Datou didn't have the energy to ask about the prisoners for the time being, and now that Heligen had recovered Lizhou City like lightning, the two of them needed to study how to defend Changde City in the future.

In fact, there is nothing to study, Lizhou City is the north gate of Changde City, and it is also the gateway to Jingzhou Mansion, and defending Lizhou City is equivalent to guarding Changde City.

Because of this, Guan Datou took out two-thirds of the heavy weapons such as cannons and ballistas and deployed them in Lizhou City, and only one-third of Changde City remained.

Since artillery is to be deployed, it is necessary to build a turret. To build a fort, labor was needed, and the captives came in handy.

The old master Miao Sanguan had his own views on the deployment of city defense, so Guan Datou mobilized the 5,000 infantry troops in the captives to build two forts five miles outside the west, north and east gates.

There were a total of six batteries outside the city, and 24 artillery pieces were deployed, including 6 5-inch guns and 18 4-inch guns.

These batteries were within striking range of the castle towers, and in the event of an enemy attack on them, the cannons on the towers could provide fire support.

In this way, it is equivalent to increasing the range of the cannon from six miles to twelve miles, and Miao Sanguan's tactical guiding ideology is this.

From now on, if the enemy wants to attack the city of Lizhou, he can only place his troops twelve miles away.

At a distance of twelve miles, even if the enemy has great ability, he cannot directly threaten the city, and this pressure is much less.

One battery with four artillery pieces stationed 40 soldiers, the entire outer defense line only needs 240 soldiers, and it can provide more training and rest time for the main force, and it is always in a state of waiting for work.

In normal times, only two hundred rangers are needed to patrol the periphery, and Lizhou City and Changde City are already at ease.

The reason why forts were built outside the three city gates in the northeast and west, but not outside the south gate, is because the south of Lizhou City is the Lishui River, which is a natural barrier.

It is precisely because of the unique geographical environment of Lizhou City that Guan Datou and Helangen are fully engaged in the management of this place, which is to make full use of the gateway of the Lishui River and set up a strong northern defense line for Changde City in the south.

The deployment of the entire city defense was completed, because with the participation of 5,000 prisoners, it was completed in half a month, and it was finally time to deal with the prisoners.

Guan Datou and Heligen's process of dealing with the captives was very simple.

At noon on that day, after lunch in the six prisoner-of-war camps, Guan Datou came to the prisoner of war camps with 360 personal soldiers, and then called Wang Wenyao and his more than 400 generals out and said something:

"General Wang, our General Helian said at the beginning that he would not harm you, and today is the time to fulfill this promise. You can now gather all your soldiers together and give lectures, and as long as those who are willing to go with you, you can go now, and see you on the battlefield on another day. ”

Wang Wenyao lost a total of two centurions, and the army of 6,000 can be said to be intact.

Hearing that Guan Datou didn't introduce himself at all, Wang Yaowen knew that the other party didn't mean to leave himself, so he quickly gathered all his people.

Unexpectedly, after Wang Wenyao's personal soldiers went to the major battalions to give orders, his face turned pale.

It turned out that after half an hour, the number of people who came out of the six camps was less than three hundred.

In other words, with an army of 6,000 people, Wang Wenyao can now take less than 1,000 people.

"Come on, send the war horses of General Wang and his own soldiers!" Guan Datou sat on the back of the horse expressionlessly: "General Wang, everyone has their own ambitions, and they can't be forced." The other brothers are unwilling to go with you, then it is a twisted melon that is not sweet. Now you can leave, and the rest of the people have their own way to go. ”

Wang Wenyao left dejectedly, taking the two hundred and forty war horses that Guan Datou "gave him", and more than 700 people left.

Heliangen came out of the grassland, and he was also appointed by Prince Xiong to be the Jinong of the Uzhumuqin Division, which was a tribe that specialized in cultivating high-quality war horses.

Wang Wenyao's 800 cavalry horses passed by Heligen and looked at it, and 240 useless horses were picked out, and then generously "given" to Wang Wenyao.

The reason why the 5,000 soldiers did not listen to the dispatch was due to the construction of the fort outside the city.

The soldiers in the Xiong family's army are all young men selected from the victims. In the process of building the fort, they must have exchanged ideas with each other, and many people have even found their hometowns here.

After the appearance of the soldiers of the Xiong Family's army, the five thousand captives knew why they were soldiers, and they had been completely transformed.

Those who are willing to continue to be soldiers, and have been screened by Guan Datou and Heligen, those who can stay already have their own formations.

People who do not have the conditions to be soldiers and do not want to leave have now obtained their own land near Changde City.

These people already have their own opinions and belongings, so it is naturally impossible to follow Wang Wenyao to continue the rebellion, and of course no one listens to his orders.

Guan Datou and Heligen were given 4,000 recruits for nothing, and the large-scale training according to the standards of the Xiong Jiajun has been in full swing.

In this way, the defense forces of Changde City and Lizhou City suddenly got a group of sufficient new forces.

For the simple defense of the city, in addition to artillery and crossbowmen, these 4,000 people are enough.

Their main forces were completely vacated, and of course Guan Datou and Helangen could not let them be idle, so they naturally had to come in handy immediately.

Since the main force is going to come in handy, Wang Wenyao and they haven't seen Helangen for a long time.

Actually, if you haven't seen it for a long time, it belongs to the past, not the present.

When Wang Wenyao saw Heligen again, he knew that it was not good. After he goes back, it is very likely that he will not be able to make a concession to the "Generalissimo of the Fengtian Initiative" Li Zicheng.

Things will turn out like this, Wang Wenyao knows that the real trend has gone, and his battle to cross the south this time has completely failed, and it is impossible to have the slightest chance to turn the tide.
