Xianxia version of Water Margin
Chapter 335: Competing to Surrender
…
"Gaizhou has high mountains and deep ravines, and the roads are difficult and difficult. Now that two subordinate counties have been conquered, the enemy is isolated. We should first take Gaizhou to divide the enemy's forces, and then divide our troops to attack from two directions, and the enemy's victory can be broken."
Wen Huanzhang's proposal was recognized by everyone.
Xu Guanzhong then issued an order: "Zhang Yong guards Lingchuan, Shan Shiqi guards Gaoping, and the rest of the people will go straight to Gaizhou."
The next day, the left vanguard Yue Fei and the right vanguard Liu Qi each led 20,000 elite soldiers to open roads and build bridges across the mountains; Qin Ming, Yang Zhi, and Yan Shude led the left army; Guan Sheng, Sun Li, and Wu Song led the right army; Lin Chong, Shi Jin, and Yan Xiaoguang led the rear army, Hua Rong took charge of the various armies, and Xu Guanzhong, Madam Jia and other generals led the rest of the army as the central army.
These five armies rushed to Gaizhou, but they were like dragons leaving the sea and tigers emerging from the deep forest.
After the Gaizhou scouts heard the movements of the Yuan army, they reported to Gaizhou City.
Niu Wenzhong, the garrison commander of Gaizhou City, was originally a bandit. He used all the money he robbed in the rivers and lakes to support Tian Hu, and conspired with him to rebel and occupy the prefectures and counties of Hedong. Therefore, he was appointed as the Privy Councilor. He had four generals under his command, known as the "Four Mighty Generals", to assist him in guarding Gaizhou.
These four generals were: "Niwei General" Fang Qiong, "Piwei General" An Shirong, "Biaowei General" Chu Heng, and "Xiongwei General" Yu Yulin.
Under these four Mighty Generals, each had four lieutenants, a total of 16.
Niu Wenzhong and his lieutenants led 30,000 Jin troops to guard Gaizhou.
Upon hearing that Lingchuan and Gaoping had fallen, Niu Wenzhong and other garrison commanders of Gaizhou prepared to meet the enemy while sending petitions to Weisheng and Jinning for emergency help.
Upon hearing that the Yuan army was about to arrive at the city, Niu Wenzhong immediately dispatched General Fang Qiong, Lieutenants Yang Duan, Guo Xin, Su Ji, and Zhang Xiang, with 5,000 soldiers, to go out of the city to meet the enemy.
Before leaving, Niu Wenzhong said to Fang Qiong: "General, go ahead, I will lead the troops to support you later."
Fang Qiong said: "Privy Councilor, don't worry. Lingchuan and Gaoping were lost. It was not the defending generals who could defeat them, but because they fell into his trap. I will not return to the city until I kill a few of them and defeat the bandits today!"
At that moment, Fang Qiong and other generals all put on their armor and mounted their horses, led the troops out of the east gate, and rushed towards the Yuan army.
The front team of the Yuan army met the Jin army, and the vanguards on the left and right formed their battle formations, and the drums of war were blaring.
When the flag of the Jin army was raised at the inner gate, Fang Qiong went out, and the four lieutenants surrounded him on the left and right.
Fang Qiong hung a bow on his left side, arrows on his right side, rode a yellow horse, and twisted a solid iron stick. He came to the front of the battle and shouted loudly: "Water Margin bandits, how dare you use tricks to steal my city?"
Nayan, the Qiong demon in Liu Qi's army, asked Liu Qi for a fight: "Vanguard, Nayan, the Qiong demon, is willing to lead the battle!"
Liu Qi said: "If the general succeeds, Liu Qi will report to the general and ask for a reward!"
Nayan, the Qiong demon, rode his horse to the front of the battle and said: "You helped the rebels. Today, the soldiers arrived, but you still don't know how to die!"
After saying that, Nayan, the Qiong demon, rode his horse and thrust his spear to rush Fang Qiong.
Fang Qiong was not afraid either, and rode his horse to fight.
The two generals fought in the dust and murderous atmosphere for more than ten rounds, and Fang Qiong was afraid.
In the Jin army, Zhang Xiang saw that Fang Qiong could not defeat this foreign general with extremely high martial arts skills, so he picked up his bow and arrow and shot a cold arrow at Nayan, the Qiong demon.
Qiong Yao Na Yan had seen Zhang Xiang was about to shoot him with a cold arrow.
When the arrow was about to hit Qiong Yao Na Yan, he shook the steel spear in his hand and deflected the arrow.
Zhang Xiang saw that he could not hit Qiong Yao Na Yan, so he rode his horse and raised his sword to help fight again, wanting to fight two against one.
Unexpectedly, Qiong Yao Na Yan rushed forward and knocked Fang Qiong off his horse with one shot, and then he rushed to meet Zhang Xiang without stopping.
Qiong Yao Na Yan was a master who could rank among the top three in Liao’s combat power. In Water Margin, he defeated Liangshan’s eight warriors head-on. How could Zhang Xiang be his opponent?
After the two fought, Qiong Yao Na Yan’s steel spear kept hitting Zhang Xiang’s heart, and Zhang Xiang could only defend himself without any ability to fight back.
Seeing this, Jin General Guo Xin rode his horse and twisted his spear to help Zhang Xiang.
Qiong Yao Na Yan fought against the two generals without fear. The three horses were arranged in a shape of a Martin and fought in front of the formation.
Seeing the enemy shooting arrows in front and two against one behind, Tang Bin drew his bow and put an arrow on it, shouting at the same time: "Thief general, take my arrow too!"
As he spoke, Tang Bin released the bowstring, and with a "whoosh" the arrow hit Zhang Xiang in the back.
Zhang Xiang's helmet was immediately hung upside down, his feet kicked into the air, and he fell off his horse with a "thump".
Seeing Zhang Xiang being shot, Guo Xin was horrified, pretending to be vulnerable, and turned his horse to flee to the main camp.
Seeing this, the Qiong demon Na Yan peeked at Guo Xin's back, and suddenly threw the steel spear in his hand, hitting Guo Xin in the back, killing him.
Yue Fei and Liu Qi saw the opportunity, and simultaneously recruited soldiers to kill him!
The Jin army, which had lost four generals in a row, was immediately in chaos, and Yang Duan and Su Ji could not resist and retreated quickly.
Suddenly, a loud shout was heard from behind the Jin army. It turned out that Niu Wenzhong was afraid that Fang Qiong would be in danger, so he ordered An Shirong and Yu Yulin to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to attack from two directions.
The two sides then started a big melee.
In the melee, the Yuan army killed several Jin generals, and the Jin army was defeated, with two to three thousand casualties.
An Shirong, Yu Yulin and others rushed into Gaizhou City and closed the city gate.
The Yuan army chased to the foot of the city, and beat the city with wood and stones. The Yuan army retreated to a place five miles away from the city and joined forces with Xu Guanzhong, Madam Jia and others.
Xu Guanzhong ordered the officials of the Ministry of War to count the military exploits and announce the rewards according to the merits.
At this time, a strange wind suddenly blew, flying dust from west to east, shaking the flags crookedly.
Gongsun Sheng counted with his fingers and said to Xu Guanzhong and Madam Jia: "The bandits will come to raid the camp tonight, so you should prepare quickly."
Xu Guanzhong and Madam Jia listened to him, discussed with a group of advisers and generals, and then deployed the troops.
When Niu Wenzhong saw that he had killed three generals, more than a dozen generals and minor generals, and counted some sergeants, he also killed three to five thousand, and said: "This group of water pirates is so powerful!"
An Shirong heard this and offered advice on the side: "The water pirates have won several battles in a row. They must be full of arrogance and defenseless. Tonight, An will lead a group of soldiers and horses to rob his camp. They will definitely win a complete victory." Take revenge today."
Niu Wenzhong thought this was a good idea and said: "If the general goes, I will personally lead the troops to respond."
An Shirong was overjoyed: "If I can win the favor, I will definitely capture Xu Guanzhong and Jia!"
At the second watch, An Shirong, together with his generals Shen An, Lu Yuan, Wang Ji, and Shi Jing, led five thousand elite cavalry. The men were dressed in soft war, and the horses picked up luan bells. They came out of the city, held the medals and ran quickly until they reached the Yuan army. In front of the military stronghold, a crowd came into the stronghold.
Seeing that the gate of the village was wide open and the lights in the village were bright, An Shirong knew that he had fallen into the trap and retreated in a hurry.
At this time, there was a sudden sound of artillery in the Yuan army stronghold. Qin Ming, Yang Zhi, and Yan Shude were on the left, and Guan Sheng, Sun Li, and Wu Song were rushing to kill them on the right.
Not long after, the Jin army was defeated and fled for their lives.
An Shirong, Shen An, Lu Yuan, Wang Ji, and Shi Jing were all killed by the Yuan army.
Niu Wenzhong led Cao Hong and Shi Xun to lead troops to the rescue, but was ambushed by Lin Chong, Shi Jin, and Yan Xiaoguang. There was a melee. Shi Xun was picked off his horse by Lin Chong. Niu Wenzhong and Cao Hong were both injured and fled back to the city.
Xu Guanzhong, Mrs. Jia and others discussed it and felt that the Jin army was frightened after losing consecutive battles and could launch a general offensive.
On the evening of the next day, Mrs. Jia ordered Hua Rong to come to the front line to take command and ordered all ministries to prepare to attack the city.
When it got dark, Mrs. Jia gave the general order to start attacking the city. Hua Rong discussed with the commanders of each army and took turns to attack the city.
The first wave to attack was the four generals Lin Chong, Qin Ming, Suo Chao, and He Chongbao.
The sound of "dong dong dong" war drums sounded.
I saw more than twenty flying bridges appearing out of thin air. Lin Chong's four generals each picked one of them, took the lead, and led the Yuan Dynasty's horse army to rush up to the tower on horseback, with cheers cheering from below.
When the defenders in the city saw this, they shot out rockets like locusts!
The Dayuan soldiers were unable to escape and were shot off the flying bridge one after another and fell into the moat!
Seeing this, the officers and soldiers of the Dayuan Army under the city immediately fought back with trebuchets and crossbows.
At the same time, Hua Rong led hundreds of archers to select Jin generals to kill them, hoping to make the Jin army lose its command.
Just as the Dayuan Army was fiercely attacking the city, in Gaizhou City, Shi Qian led the experts from the secret special battalion to the north of the city.
The intelligence department of the Dayuan Empire had already found out that there were several temples in the north of the city, and the empty spaces were all covered with grassland.
Long before the attack on Gaizhou City, Shi Qian led a secret special battalion to sneak into Gaizhou City.
Hearing the sound of war drums, Shi Qian gave an order, and the soldiers from the secret special battalion set fire to the grassland one after another.
I saw the grassland immediately burst into flames, scratching and burning.
In a few moments, fierce flames shot into the sky in the pasture, and the temple was also on fire.
Seeing the fire in the city, all the Gaizhou defenders were shocked!
Seeing this, Mrs. Jia said to Gongsun Sheng, "I'm troubling the imperial master."
Gongsun Sheng heard this and said with a smile: "It's a trivial matter."
Later, Gongsun Sheng and Fan Rui climbed onto the high platform and cast spells together.
In an instant, a violent storm blew up, causing the defenders on the city wall to fall over, let alone open their eyes.
The fire took advantage of the power of the wind, and the wind assisted the fire. The fire in the city immediately turned into a force that burned the sky and boiled the sea.
At the same time, Ling Zhen commanded the red cannon and began to fire into the city with "bang, bang, bang..." to create further chaos.
Taking this opportunity, the soldiers of the Dayuan Army rushed to the city wall to fight.
But this time the cavalry army was not as fast as the infantry.
I saw Jie Zhen take the Pu Dao up to the flying building, climb the female wall, and jump up, and then Jie Bao also jumped up. The two brothers roared together and grabbed the parapet. Then one turned into a two-headed snake and the other into a two-tailed scorpion, massacring the defenders on the wall.
The defenders on the city were already trapped and frightened, but when they saw the fire breaking out in the city, and seeing how ferocious Jizhen and Jiebao were, they all scurried down the city.
Jie Zhen and Jie Bao went to the city gate, killed all the Jin soldiers guarding the city gate, changed back to their original form, opened the city gate, and lowered the suspension bridge.
Seeing that the city gate was wide open, Hua Rong gave an order and the army rolled into the city...
Seeing that the city gates had been captured, Niu Wenzhong had no choice but to mount his horse, abandon the city, and lead more than 200 people out of the north gate.
Unexpectedly, Yue Fei's troops had been ambushing here for a long time. In the chaos of the army, Niu Gao hit Niu Wenzhong on the head with his mace, smashing him with his helmet and head, knocking him off his horse. The other Jin soldiers were either killed or fell to their knees. surrender.
At dawn, the army marched into the city. Xu Guanzhong first sent people to lead the soldiers and civilians to put out the fire. At the same time, he issued strict orders not to harm the residents.
After the fire was extinguished and all the generals came to offer their merits, Xu Guanzhong ordered the officials of the Ministry of War to assess their military merits according to regulations.
Finally, in the merit book, it was written: The battle of Gaizhou City was the first meritorious service of Shi Qian, and the second meritorious deeds were Unlocking Treasures and Unlocking Treasures.
Then the civil servants of the Xuanfu Division came out to appease the people.
Mrs. Jia sent all the three troops and horses to Gaizhou to garrison, rewarded the generals of the three armies for their service, and at the same time sent people to rush to attack the fields and tigers on the north road to report the victory...
…
When Jiang Hongfei received the news of the success of the army of tigers cutting fields on the south road, the army of tigers cutting fields on the north road he led had already arrived at Shiling Pass.
After occupying Daizhou, Jiang Hongfei immediately sent Shi Wengong and Wu Jie to seize Shiling Pass.
Unexpectedly, Shi Wengong and Wu Jie hurriedly hurried, but they were still a step too late, allowing Yu Deyuan to get to Shiling Pass first and set up defenses.
Seeing this, Jiang Hongfei wanted to order Shi Wengong and Wu Jie to attack Shiling Pass.
Unexpectedly, Bian Xiang found Jiang Hongfei and said, "I have become good friends with Yu Deyuan, and I would like to go alone to tell him to surrender."
Bian Xiang is a general, and a general with both civil and military skills. Jiang Hongfei is really reluctant to let him take this risk.
But Bian Xiang was very persistent and promised that he would be able to convince Yu Deyuan to surrender.
How can there be no risk in fighting?
Jiang Hongfei thought that if Bian Xiang was short-lived, even if he could escape this time, he would definitely not be able to escape the next time.
So Jiang Hongfei agreed to Bian Xiang's request.
Bian Xiang soon arrived in front of Shiling Pass and was picked up by Yu Deyuan.
As soon as the two met, Bian Xiang said to Yu Deyuan: "I am not here to surrender to you because you and I were brothers, but because the millions of people in Hedong have come to ask you not to use your arms as a chariot."
After a pause, Bian Xiang continued to talk to himself: "How can Tian Hu be so virtuous and worthy of enjoying the world? How has the life of the people in Hedong been since he has been entrenched in Hedong for these years? What about me, the Emperor of Dayuan? I, Dayuan, How is the life of the people? I don’t believe you don’t know this. If you insist on going your own way, please kill me for the sake of our past friendship.”
Yu Deyuan listened and remained silent!
Just like what Bian Xiang said, Tian Hu has great ambitions but little talent, is extortionate and extortionate, is arrogant and extravagant, and Yu Deyuan is of course very clear. The key point is that Tian Hu only has the land east of Hedong, so let the plains in Hedong be filled with mourning and the people are in dire straits. If Tian Hu takes over the world, wouldn't it be a great misfortune for the world? The key point is that Tian Hu doesn't look like a wise master who can win the world.
On the other hand, Jiang Hongfei was wise and wise, open-minded and generous, knew people well and put them to good use, and he was willing to put people to use. In a few years, he had exhausted all his strategies, left no troops behind, and had a great cause. The people under his rule had enough food and clothing, lived and worked in peace and contentment, and were so glorious and powerful. Tang Zong style.
Tian Hu and Jiang Hongfei competed and decided.
Seeing Yu Deyuan's hesitation, Bian Xiang said again: "Since I, the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, have opened doors everywhere to welcome the emperor, it is clear what the people's aspirations are. If you are stubborn, ignore the people, and are only loyal to Tian Hu, then you can only be regarded as Bian Hu." Xiang was blind and missed you."
"That's it for now, please make a quick decision."
After hearing this, Yu Deyuan sighed: "Alas! It's not Yu Deyuan's disloyalty, but it's actually the millions of Li people in the east of the river..."
Yu Deyuan fell, and Shiling Pass, which Jiang Hongfei was extremely worried about, would be destroyed without attack.
However, there are still generals who are loyal to Tian Hu.
For example, Li Yi from Guo County resolutely refused to accept Jiang Hongfei's surrender.
After taking Daizhou, Jiang Hongfei sent surrender general Li Siben and others to the counties of Daizhou to recruit and surrender.
To Jiang Hongfei's relief, many states and counties along the way rushed to surrender.
No, Guo County is an exception.
Facing Li Siben's call to surrender below the city, Li Yi stood on the tower and scolded Li Siben fiercely, and suddenly shot Li Siben with an arrow.
However, Li Yi refused to surrender, but his subordinates wanted to surrender.
Cui Zhong, who served under Li Yi, was a Yan native who later took refuge with Tian Hu, also known as "Han'er". He and many people in Nao County wanted to join Jiang Hongfei.
So, while Li Yi was leading his troops to resist the Yuan army's attack, Cui Zhong suddenly drew his sword and assassinated Li Yi's general Zhang Hongfu, leading the Yuan army into the city.
Li Yi led the people who were loyal to Tian Hu and resisted from morning until night. Only when they were exhausted were they captured alive.
Li Yi was brought to Jiang Hongfei by Wang Jin. He didn't say a word. He only said: "Because of the traitor's internal cooperation, the city was broken and he was captured. He was killed at will. But there is one thing. My lord is in the south. You can't teach me how to face." North and die.”
Seeing that Li Yi was looking forward to death, Jiang Hongfei said to the people around him: "This is a loyal and righteous man, and I will honor him."
Jiang Hongfei ordered people to prepare good wine, meat, and brand-new clothes for Li Yi, let him have a good meal and wash himself, and then gave him a glass of poisoned wine to fulfill his loyalty.
After Li Yi died, Jiang Hongfei led his army to continue southward and quickly arrived at Taiyuan City, the center of Hedong...
