When Pei Jian saw Bai Shu's men and horses under the city, he was already excited. In his opinion, the more troops and horses defending the city, the better. How could 10,000 people defend Quanzhou City? Quanzhou City is surrounded by enemies on all sides. If you want to make it impregnable, you have to give yourself 70,000 to 80,000 troops.
"What are you still doing? Open the city gate quickly to welcome General Bai into the city!" Pei Jianyou shouted.
"Wait!"
At this moment, someone shouted loudly, and everyone turned to look. It turned out that Fang Jing, the deputy general guarding the city, had a higher status than him, and it was hard for everyone to talk back, so they all looked at Pei Jian. After all, he could suppress the deputy general. The only one left is the general.
When Pei Jian saw that it was Fang Jing, his face suddenly darkened. Fang Jing usually criticized him a lot and looked down on him all day long. Now that reinforcements were coming and they were blocking him, he didn't take him seriously at all. .
"Fang Jing, are you blind? Didn't you see that there are General Liu's people under the city? If you neglect him???????????????? General Liu will blame you. Can you and I do it?" Can you afford it?"
"I think something is fishy. Not long after the army invaded Quanzhou, we didn't have time to send a letter to ask for help from King Wu. How did General Liu of Zhangzhou know about it? Moreover, Zhangzhou is far away from Quanzhou, more than 200 miles away. From Zhangzhou to Quanzhou It will take two days at the fastest. We just repelled the army two days ago, and they set out from Zhangzhou to rescue us. It really makes no sense. General Pei can't open the city gate easily!"
Fang Jing was very thoughtful in his work and was analyzing his opinions loudly to everyone.
Seeing Pei Jian's delay in opening the city gate, Bai Shu, who was under the city, was also very anxious and urged again: "General Liu sent me to help you. What do General Pei and General Fang on the wall mean? Either open the door quickly and let us enter the city, or I I'll turn around and return to Zhangzhou later, why do you want to delay making a decision?"
Upon hearing Bai Shu's urging from the city, Pei Jian quickly stuck out his head and said with a smile: "General Bai, wait a moment, I will open the door for you now, open the door for you!"
Bai Shu was a partial general in Chen Fu's uprising army, and Pei Jian was the chief general who defended the city of Quanzhou. Logically speaking, Bai Shu's status was inferior to that of Pei Jian, just because Bai Shu was Liu Tong's man, and Pei Jian spoke He even addressed me as you. This groveling behavior deeply made Fang Jing feel disgusted.
Pei Jian was deeply afraid of offending Bai Shu at this moment, so he didn't listen to Fang Jing's analysis. He just waved his hands impatiently and said:
"Fang Jing, Fang Jing, I think you are used to being timid and fearful. Everyone you see is an enemy. It's not like you didn't see it just now. The person under the city is General Liu Tong's general Bai Shu. Do you doubt General Liu Tong?" He surrendered to the imperial court."
"Why don't you open the door, General Pei? If you treat people like this, I will report the truth to General Liu when you get back!" Bai Shu urged loudly again.
"Open the door, open the door quickly, let General Bai enter the city quickly!" When Pei Jian saw that Bai Shu was going back to complain to Liu Tong, he hurriedly ordered the soldiers to lower the drawbridge and open the city gate quickly.
Lieutenant General Fang Jing drew his sword and shouted: "Slow down! Whoever dares to open the city gate for me today, I will kill him! General, there are many doubts about this, the sky is dark, how can you tell clearly, it is better to ask clearly before opening it!" "
As soon as he saw Fang Jing drawing his sword with his eyes open and full of murderous intent, the soldiers who were about to open the city gate immediately retreated. At this time, Pei Jian felt that Fang Jing had disrespected his dignity as a general in front of the generals, and was furious. Not listening to Fang Jing's words, he pulled out a knife, pointed it at Fang Jing and cursed:
"Bold Fang Jing, I am the commander-in-chief and you are the deputy-general. Do you dare to disobey my order today?"
When he saw Fang Jing and Pei Jian on the top of the city both pulling out their swords, Bai Shu knew that the two had a dispute. In order to get Pei Jian to open the door for him as soon as possible, Bai Shu added jealousy again: "No wonder the officers and soldiers dare not come to Zhangzhou. But I only come to your Quanzhou. Do you in Quanzhou have no distinction between priorities? Do the deputy generals want to listen to the words of the chief general? How ridiculous!"????????????????
All the soldiers in the city laughed loudly. Pei Jian blushed after hearing this. He felt that as a general, he had no face at this moment. He was suddenly angry. He was usually timid and fearful, but now he dared to slash at the room with his sword. Respectfully.
When he saw Pei Jian getting angry and slashing at him with a knife, Fang Jing hurriedly blocked with his knife, but the block knocked Pei Jian back several steps and almost turned him backwards.
Fang Jing took advantage of this pause and hurriedly shouted to the city: "Bai Shu, let me ask you, how did you know that the army was attacking Quanzhou? We didn't write to King Wu about this!"
After Pei Jian stood firm, he knew that his martial arts skills were no match for Fang Jing, so he did not dare to go forward. In order to save his own face, he quickly followed Fang Jing and said, "General Bai, don't think too much. I am both the defender of Quanzhou and the general of Quanzhou." King Wu personally entrusted it, so he naturally has to take responsibility."
After hearing the questions from the city, Bai Shu was already prepared and immediately said: "King Wu knew that there were very few garrison troops in Quanzhou, so he sent a special letter to General Liu Tong to send more troops to Quanzhou. As for the official army to attack Quanzhou, I will do it." I only heard about it when I arrived in Quanzhou. Now that I am kind enough to help you, my army came to the gate of the city but refused to let in. What kind of truth is this?"
Upon seeing this, all the generals stepped forward to advise: "I know that General Fang is always cautious, but Bai Shu is indeed General Liu Tong's general. General Fang must not be too cautious and chill the hearts of all the soldiers."
Seeing that everyone was admonishing him, and seeing the displeasure on the face of the general Pei Jian, Fang Jing had no choice but to give in and agreed to let the army enter the city.
Seeing that Fang Jing said nothing, Pei Jian walked in front of him and snorted coldly, saying, "General Liu Tong blames you for delaying our brothers in the city for so long!"
In the sound of "squeaking", the suspension bridge at the main gate of Quanzhou was finally slowly lowered, and the city gate opened with a rumble. Pei Jian, Fang Jing and the generals came down from the city wall to greet them. Bai Shu rode straight in with a saber hanging on his waist, and his own soldiers also filed in one after another.
"Oh, General Bai, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long." Pei Jian rushed ahead, showing a flattering smile.
】
Fang Jing saw that as soon as the city gate opened, Bai Shu's men and horses hurried in, he felt something was wrong in his heart. At this moment, he suddenly saw Bai Shu pull out his sword and screamed: "No, there is a trick, close the city gate quickly!"
"Ah" Pei Jian was shocked and didn't have time to react.
With a "puff" sound, Bai Shu hit Pei Jian in the back of the neck with the knife, and immediately cut off his head. The round head rolled to the ground, and blood spurted out of his cavity like a fountain, which was shocking.
"No, I fell into a trap!"
The generals were horrified and drew their swords one after another, preparing to fight back.
Bai Shu raised his sword and jumped on his horse and shouted: "All officers and men obey the order and follow me to kill the enemy and put down the rebellion!"
"Kill...Kill!"
Bai Shu led more than a thousand warriors with horses and swords to swarm forward. In an instant, they chopped down the stunned defenders in pieces. Their heads rolled around and blood flowed all over the street. "Catch all the traitors and traitors, and not a single one will be spared." Let go!"
Fang Jing shouted while swinging his sword to kill the enemy: "Close the city gate quickly! Close the city gate quickly!"
But there was no time to close the city gate. The city gate was guarded by the Ming army. Suddenly, a group of Ming army cavalry rushed in. Wherever the horses' hooves touched, everyone's head fell to the ground.
This cavalry was the light cavalry led by Shi Pu. When he saw that Bai Shu had successfully opened the Quanzhou city gate, he immediately waved his sword and slapped his horse and led the cavalry to rush in.
Although Fang Jing's martial arts skills were not bad, he was in danger of being surrounded by the Ming army. He barely managed to hold on for three more rounds. Bai Shu took the opportunity to knock his weapon away and kicked him to the ground. He was immediately tied up by the Ming soldiers. .
One of the two generals in Quanzhou City was beheaded and the other was captured. Although the remaining generals who were still resisting had some martial arts skills, they were outnumbered and had no choice but to be captured and became prisoners of the Ming army.
Suddenly, the commander-in-chief Pei Jian was killed instantly, and the deputy general Fang Jing and other major generals were collectively captured. The rebel army in Quanzhou City suddenly became chaotic. Some people surrendered, while others stubbornly resisted, and were immediately wiped out. Others fled in panic from other city gates and fled north. In this way, Quanzhou City, which had ten thousand people, was defeated by eight thousand Ming troops in less than an hour, and returned to the embrace of the Ming Dynasty.
