Facing the murderous Zhao Yong, Guo Zhiping's expression became serious. He quickly pulled out the Miao Dao from his waist and rushed towards him.
"boom!"
There was just a crisp sound, and the Yanchi Dao and Miao Dao in the two people's hands on the horse were chopped together. It seemed that something was wrong. Zhao Yong's eyes flashed with a look of surprise, and he patted the horse without further entanglement with Guo Zhiping. He dodged until he had dodged about ten steps before regaining his feet...
After standing still, Zhao Yongyi carefully guarded Guo Zhiping while looking at the Wild Goose Wing Knife in his hand from the corner of his eye. At this time, this sword had been with him for many years and had been through countless swords, guns and swords. The cold light on the knife was clear. There is a gap!
Seeing the appearance of this gap, Zhao Yong couldn't help but look very ugly. This wild goose-wing knife was a rare treasure. When he first followed Zhao Fuqu to make a fortune, he specially spent a lot of money to ask the master to cast it. Ever since he followed him, the knife has been extremely sharp, not only cutting through iron like clay. It has never fallen off the chain for him in all these years. How could it be so bad today, with cracks appearing after just one collision?
The outcome of a fight between masters often only happens in a split second. In the same way, in the previous fight, he had almost tested Guo Zhiping's strength. This bandit leader was not an easy person, and his skills were really strong! Now that the guy who has the advantage is in trouble, what should we do?
Seeing Zhao Yong's uncertain expression, a faint smile appeared on Guo Zhiping's face. He knew exactly what Zhao Yong was thinking about writing...
Since the establishment of the Ordnance Manufacturing Bureau, Ye Mingsheng has tightened his belt and continued to invest to ensure the treatment of craftsmen and technicians and enhance their enthusiasm for innovative research. These craftsmen and technicians are also deeply grateful to Ye Mingsheng and work hard to study. Technology has produced a lot of technical achievements.
Among these technological achievements are technologies to improve the quality of steel and enhance the hardness of swords. Because this is a new technology, it has not been put into large-scale production, so the Fengwu Army has not yet installed it on a large scale. Senior generals of the Fengwu Army, including Ye Mingsheng, replaced them with new weapons.
Guo Zhiping, who was born in Green Forest, is already good at martial arts, and with the blessing of new weapons, he is confident that he can completely defeat Zhao Yong, so he proposed a one-on-one duel, but Zhao Yong also brought him some " surprise!"
Guo Zhiping originally thought that Zhao Yong had been in charge of the Chinese army for a long time and had not personally gone into battle to kill the enemy for a long time. His skills should have been wasted, so he could easily defeat Zhao Yong. However, judging from the previous fight, Zhao Yong His horse-riding skills really didn’t fall short!
The eyes collided fiercely in mid-air. This time, Guo Zhiping took the lead to attack and kill. Facing Guo Zhiping, who vowed not to give up, Zhao Yong could only face him despite his helplessness. After several rounds, he continued to chop and chop. Zhao Yong only felt that the Wild Goose Wing Saber in his hand seemed to be broken into pieces. The disadvantage of the weapon made him passively block. For a moment, he was in a very embarrassing situation, surrounded by dangers. He might be killed by Guo Zhiping at any time... ·············
Seeing their general in such a desperate situation, the remnants of the Yan army who were surrounded were anxious in their hearts. At this moment, Zhao Yong's master Xu Zhe seemed to have made some decision and turned to the men beside him. After using a color, his subordinates immediately understood and hid in the crowd and quietly raised the firecracker in their hands.
They thought they were doing it covertly, but they never expected that the Fengwu Army had been prepared. Cui Desheng had been watching their every move. Seeing that this group of defeated soldiers still wanted to play dirty, Cui Desheng did not hesitate at all. He yelled to remind Guo Zhiping:
"General, be careful of plots!"
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the Fengwu gunman who had prepared it immediately pulled the trigger and shot at the group of Yan troops. The gunman who was preparing to plot against Guo Zhiping was immediately shot before he could take action. Sieved.
Seeing his men being slaughtered by the Fengwu Army, Zhao Yong, who was tired of defending, couldn't help but look stunned and lost his mind for a moment. Guo Zhiping also decisively seized this opportunity and chopped off the Wild Goose Wing Saber in Zhao Yong's hand, and then waited without waiting. Zhao Yong fully reacted and cut off his head with a single blow. Zhao Yong subconsciously raised his hand to block, but how could his arm withstand the sharp blade in Guo Zhiping's hand?
Without any luck or accident, Zhao Yong, the pillar of the Zhao family's regime, collapsed to the ground and died...
As soon as Zhao Yong died, the surrounding Fengwu troops immediately became excited and shouted loudly about might!
Guo Zhiping, who had killed the powerful enemy with his own hands, was undoubtedly very excited. He got off his horse and cut off Zhao Yong's head with his Miao knife. Then he held Zhao Yong's head high and roared loudly at the sluggish remnants of the Yan army:
"Zhao Yong is dead! Why don't you surrender?"
As Guo Zhiping's words appeared, thousands of surrounding Fengwu troops also shouted at the same time. The slogan of surrender without killing was deafening and the mountains were shaking.
Under such a breathtaking power, the remaining hundreds of Yan Army remnants had no fighting spirit. As the first person put down their weapons, everyone else put down their weapons one after another, except for a few Except for Zhao Yong's die-hard confidants, almost everyone wisely chose to surrender.
After half a stick of incense had been taken care of the prisoners of war, Cui Desheng seemed to have doubts in his mind. After a moment of hesitation, he mustered up the courage to ask Guo Zhiping in a low voice:
"General, if you lose the fight with Zhao Yong, will you really let him go?"
Listening to Cui Desheng's question, Guo Zhiping smiled slightly, patted his shoulder and said confidently:
"First I will not lose!"
"Secondly, I, Mr. Guo, have never said that I am a gentleman. Your Excellency has said that soldiers must obey orders as their bounden duty. In front of your military orders, my personal honors and disgrace are nothing..." ············”
··························
··························
Just when Guo Zhiping annihilated the remnants of Zhao Yong's troops in Sunjiagou, Ye Mingsheng had already led his army back to Yi Jing. With Ye Mingsheng's return, Zhao Shuhao's troops, who had been chased by Lin Huaiwu, had no way to go to heaven and no way to the ground. There was no doubt that there was no way to survive now, and he was quickly strangled. Zhao Shuhao himself became a prisoner of the Fengwu Army.
There is a saying in the art of war: attacking the heart is the top priority, attacking the city is the bottom priority, fighting the heart is the top priority, and fighting with soldiers is the bottom priority!
In order to achieve the effect of subduing the enemy without fighting, Ye Mingsheng continued to display the captured Yan army prisoners of war under Yijing City. On the other hand, he also beheaded the Yan army and chopped off their heads along with the surrender leaflets. , threw it into Yijing City with a trebuchet, and threatened the Yan army officers and soldiers in the city.
Faced with this psychological offensive from the Fengwu Army, the already worried Yan Army in Yijing City was now even more frightened as to when this group of wolf-like and tiger-like Fengwu Army soldiers would enter the city.
At such a time point, Gu Liu appeared in Zhang Hongxiang's study again, bowed and told Zhang Hongxiang:
"My lord, I have received a letter from the general, stating that the Fengwu Army will resume its offensive against Yi Jing starting tomorrow..."
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Hongxiang's face showed a tangled look. He was an indecisive person. The more critical moments came to this, the more he looked forward and backward, fearing the wolf before and the tiger behind, and he was full of worries about his decision.
With the corner of his eye, he quietly looked at Zhang Hongxiang, and Gu Liu said again:
"Administrator Ye has promised to form the Sixth Division of the Fengwu Army after the Yijing City is broken. The young master will serve as the general of the Sixth Division, and you, my lord, will become the deputy general of the Sixth Division!"
Hearing that there was a deputy general available, and that his immediate superior was Gu Shouting, Zhang Hongxiang was not only a little moved by this, but he still hesitated to let go. Seeing this, Gu Liu also took out the trump card taught to him in Gu Shouting's Fei Ge Biography. , forcing Zhang Hongxiang to say:
"Your Majesty, Governor Ye has already spoken. If you want to surrender, then open the Dongyi Gate tonight. If there is no action tonight, then everything discussed before will be invalid. Not only that, after the Fengwu Army breaks the city, the first one will be Lord Liquidator, you..."
After listening to Gu Liu's words, Zhang Hongxiang looked stunned. He didn't know what to do, and his expression became uncertain. After waiting for about a cup of tea, seeing that Zhang Hongxiang still remained silent, Gu Liu sighed and then turned to Zhang Hongxiang bowed and said:
"Since Mr. Zhang insists on being buried with the Zhao family, I won't bother you any more!"
After speaking, Gu Liu turned around and left without waiting for Zhang Hongxiang's answer. Seeing this, Zhang Hongxiang finally sighed helplessly. Although he still couldn't bear to betray the Yan army, he also understood that the Fengwu army was pressing down on the country and Yi Jing was suffering from internal and external troubles. It's already in danger.
Regardless of whether he surrenders or not, he cannot change the outcome of the destruction of Yi Jing. Even if Zhao Fuqu comes back after losing Yi Jing, the Zhao family is still in doom. At most, it is lingering in the south of Youyan, unable to stop the Fengwu Army, and he still has a large family. The son wants to live, so he cannot die for the Zhao family!
Zhang Hongxiang smiled bitterly and said to himself:
"Forget it, let me, Zhang Hongxiang, be a villain..."
Hearing that he was finally willing to express his stance, Gu Liu also stopped leaving and looked at Zhang Hongxiang. Zhang Hongxiang looked at him and asked:
"Are the Fengwu Army ready now?"
Gu Liu nodded and said:
"Yes! The Fengwu Army is ready to attack Dongyi Gate at any time! After taking down the four Dongyi Gates, open the city gate and launch three fireworks as a signal. In order to avoid accidentally hurting you and your subordinates, Mr. Zhang, you should tie a white cloth around your waist as a mark!"
Zhang Hongxiang did not speak when he heard this, but just nodded, and then began to lead his family's private soldiers to prepare. An hour later, Zhang Hongxiang was ready and came to Dongyi Gate with more than a hundred close followers.
Because Zhang Hongxiang was the guard of Dongyi Gate, he quickly controlled Dongyi Gate. After listening to Zhang Hongxiang's order to open the city gate, the defenders of Dongyi Gate thought they had heard it wrong at first, but they saw Zhang Hongxiang was serious. Although the vast majority of people chose to remain silent, some diehards of the Zhao family still stood up and accused Zhang Hongxiang.
Although Zhang Hongxiang was a bit indecisive, he knew very well after many years in the army that he must not be merciful at this time. He immediately ordered his generals to kill all those who were unwilling to surrender. After doing this, Zhang Hongxiang successfully opened the city. Door, three fireworks were launched into the sky···············
As the fireworks at Dongyi Gate slowly rose, Qi Dechao walked into the tent and reported to Ye Mingsheng, who was closing his eyes to rest:
"Sir! Zhang Hongxiang succeeded!"
Ye Mingsheng opened his eyes, a fleeting light flashed in his eyes, and then he ordered in a deep voice;
"Let Yuan Song and Lin Huaiwu take action! Let them remember that no one can hurt Zhao Jianan, and he must be allowed to get out alive!"
"yes!"
Just after Ye Mingsheng finished typing the order, Sun Zhunde hurriedly walked into Zhao Jianan's mansion. He looked anxious and ignored the etiquette as soon as he entered the door and shouted loudly:
"The eldest son! The eldest son!"
"Master Sun, the eldest son has finally fallen asleep, so please don't disturb him! If you have anything to do, we can discuss it during the day tomorrow."
Because of the lesson learned from Sun Zhunde’s creation of his mansion last time, this time the servants of Zhao Jianan’s mansion actually stopped Sun Zhunde and tried to persuade him:
Listening to the bastard words of these servants, Sun Zhunde was so angry that he raised his big palm and slapped it down hard, shouting:
"If you weren't a bunch of villains, how could the eldest young master be so greedy for wine and sex?"
"The Fengwu Army has already entered the city. Why don't you quickly pull the eldest son out? What are you waiting for..."
As soon as the words "Fengwu Army entered the city" came out, and when I thought of the fact that Fengwu Army was like wolves and tigers as rumored, all these villains were undoubtedly frightened. None of them dared to stop Sun Zhunde. Zhunde fought his way to Zhao Jianan's bedroom.
Seeing Zhao Jianan, who smelled of alcohol, sleeping soundly with several beautiful concubines in his arms, he was even more angry. However, as a Confucian official, he still had to follow the etiquette, so he could only suppress the anger in his heart. , wanting to wake Zhao Jianan up.
I don’t know how much alcohol Zhao Jianan drank. No matter how much Sun Zhunde shook or shouted, he remained indifferent and refused to open his eyes. Seeing this, Sun Zhunde, who was in a very anxious mood, couldn’t care about that much anymore. It was directly about his life. The man took a basin of cold well water, and then he personally poured the basin of ice water into Zhao Jianan's face.
This trick worked really well. The biting cold water fell on Zhao Jianan's face, immediately dispersing Zhao Jianan's pajamas and waking him up from his sleep. Zhao Jianan woke up and was naturally filled with anger. Looking at that This pot of Sun Zhunde pointed directly at his nose and cursed loudly:
"Sun Zhunde, are you going to rebel? This bitch Ye Mingsheng bullies me, and you come to bully me too?"
"Come here! Take him to me..."
