early morning.
A ray of light dispelled the darkness and illuminated the earth.
Ancient Cloud City.
When the officials woke up, they immediately gathered at the county government office, elected a minor official, and went out of the city to surrender.
Although Xu Min, Lu Gu and others did not notify others, the evacuation of the troops could be silent. Among other things, the soldiers under their command are all newly recruited, and some of them are from Guyun County.
These soldiers broke away from the team on the road and returned to the city.
Without strong military discipline, it would be impossible for soldiers to leave their hometowns, follow their generals, and fight elsewhere.
Inside the main camp of Beishan Fort.
Zhang Jin woke up early in the morning. When the people who asked him to surrender arrived, he was already dressed, washed, and ready to have breakfast.
Because of the shortage of food, his breakfast was very ordinary. It's just some dry food and a bowl of soup made from dried meat.
"What did you say? Zhou Shu, Linghu Zhi, Xu Min, and Lu Gu ran away with their troops?" Zhang Jin stood up suddenly, with a mixture of surprise, joy, and some frustration on his face.
It is naturally good to capture a city for nothing.
But it would be a pity to let these soldiers go.
"Yes. There was movement among the troops last night. When we went out this morning, we found that there was no one in the barracks." The officer who asked to surrender said with certainty.
"General Zhang. We are being coerced by the Meng Yuan people, and we do not really want to surrender to the Meng Yuan people. Please spare our lives, General Zhang."
The little official immediately lowered his eyebrows, cupped his fists and begged sincerely.
Zhang Jin didn't know what Wu Nian was doing in Shanguang City, but he was not stupid. At this time, it is true to stabilize these officials.
"You have done a good job in offering the city. I will report it to General Fu Han." However, Zhang Jin was very smart and only promised to say good things to him, but did not agree to the matter.
The clerk was a little disappointed, but also relieved.
"Thank you, General." He said gratefully.
Although things seemed to be "done," Zhang Jin was still very cautious. He first detained the petty official, and then sent a hundred of his subordinates and a hundred soldiers into the city to check, after making sure that there was no ambush in the city.
Zhang Jin divided the team into two. He only led 2,000 strong men into the city and occupied the original military buildings. The rest of the common people and strong men stayed outside the city.
At the same time, he began to actively transport food and baggage, collect horses and carts, and planned to empty Guyun City.
That is the same as what Wu Nian did in Shanguang City.
Zhang Jin felt very good when he saw that many people were willing to live in Beishan Fort, and when he saw the food in the carts.
The general has also conquered Shanguang City.
It is winter now, and there is still a lot of food in these two cities. After getting the food and baggage back to Beishan Fort, their life will be much easier.
This time, the goal of attacking Guangyang Mansion was half accomplished.
Zhang Jin felt very regretful that he had escaped those four culprits.
While waiting for Wu Nian to arrive, he imagined whether Wu Nian had a way to kill these four culprits. But soon he felt that he had thought too much.
The duck has flown away, can it still be chased back?
But things are often unexpected.
This morning.
The sun is shining and the snow is white. Outside the south city gate, Zhang Jin led a few elite soldiers to wait. Not long after, a small black dot appeared in front of us.
The black spots quickly enlarged and turned into an army.
The flag with the word "Wu" flying in the wind, showing its teeth and claws, looking very impressive.
"General." After the army approached, Zhang Jin led his soldiers and bowed to Wu Nian under the banner.
"Brother, thank you for your hard work." Wu Nian got off his horse, smiled, grabbed Zhang Jin's hands, and helped him up, saying.
"I am ashamed of myself." Zhang Jin shook his head and said with a depressed look on his face: "I let go the culprit and more than two thousand soldiers. I am really ashamed of myself."
this matter. Wu Nian knew it on the road. He was also a little regretful, but only half as sad as Zhang Jin. He smiled and stretched out his right hand to pat Zhang Jin's shoulder and said, "Brother, there is nothing we can do about those two thousand Han soldiers. But those four culprits will probably die in Wan Yanxian's hands."
"What?!" Zhang Jin's eyes widened. This possibility did not occur to him at all.
"Losing the city is not a trivial matter even in the Chu State. But the Chu State officials are reasonable and there is still room for maneuver in this matter. Don't look at the Mongolian people occupying Liaodong and acting very pro-Han. But they are cruel people at heart. . The four of them lost the city and went back, seemingly with their lives saved. But can Wanyanxian tolerate them? I guess Wanyanxian will not only kill them, but also make their families slaves to the armored men."
"It would be better for them to die in my hands. At least in Shanguang County, I didn't do anything to Liu Chong and his family."
Wu Nian smiled.
It was a pity that the two thousand Han soldiers left, but Liaodong heroes like Xu Min and Lu Gu died in the hands of Wan Yanxian.
Kill yourself.
Two threats missing.
very good.
"What the general said makes sense." After Zhang Jin calmed down, he thought for a moment and really felt that he was. Are the Meng Yuan people reasonable?
The military law of the Mongolian people was very harsh.
These guys looked like they were running away, but in fact they were heading to hell.
Thinking of this, Zhang Jin became happy. This incident made him unable to eat, as if something was stuck in his throat.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's enter the city first, transport supplies, and wait for news from Wan Yanxian. I hope Wan Yanxian can let Long Qie go happily. Otherwise, there will still be a fight."
Wu Nian patted Zhang Jin's shoulder again, clung to the saddle, and mounted the horse with the stirrups.
"yes."
Zhang Jin responded and got on his horse. The large group of people slowly entered the city, and the soldiers and horses were scattered in the military buildings on the four city walls, squeezing together.
Wu Nian was in Guyun County, waiting to see the situation.
I have already taken action and defeated two cities in a row. How about it.
Do you want to continue to eat my brother Long Qie? Do you want to gather your troops to counterattack Guyun and Shanguang cities and fight me to the death?
Hopefully it's the latter.
Of course, Wu Nian would definitely not confront Wanyanxian head-on.
Whoever touches it is stupid.
A hilltop near Yundang Mountain, inside the village. The soldiers of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty ate well every day and became fat and strong. Wearing thick armor, he can move freely, and his morale is visibly high.
Inside the tent.
Wan Yanxian ate the roast leg of lamb while lighting the fire.
The stove is placed in the center, and a small table is placed in front of the stove. He held a sharp knife for cutting meat and cut the meat from the lamb leg piece by piece.
From time to time, he would pick up the wine bowl on one side and take a sip of good wine. Sometimes I feel the taste is too bland, so I sprinkle some salt.
Drink a lot of wine and eat a lot of meat. What a wonderful time it was.
no way. Who said I have the advantage now?
Long Qie was besieged by him on Yundang Mountain, just waiting to starve to death. He has tens of thousands of Han households and is responsible for guarding four cities.
According to the strength and combat effectiveness of Beishan Fort, it is impossible to easily enter the city.
When Long Qi starved to death, he led his troops to chop off Wu Nian's head.
This script is so perfect.
Nothing to worry about.
