Liaodong, under Shenyang City.
Amin got his wish and killed Hong Tai and took over the command of the barbarian army.
His wish finally came true. As long as he successfully captured Shenyang, he could naturally inherit the position of Great Khan.
It's just that the news of Hong Tai's death needs to be kept secret to avoid affecting the morale of the army.
Amin glanced at everyone and said loudly: "Generals, in order to stabilize the morale of the army and successfully capture the city of Shenyang, the news of the death of the Great Khan needs to be temporarily concealed. After Shenyang is captured, the funeral arrangements for the Great Khan can be taken care of."
No one has any objection to this proposal.
Once the Great Khan dies, if nothing unexpected happens, Amin is most likely to inherit the throne.
Although the Great Khan also had children, they were all too young.
The barbarians respected the strong, and Hong Tai had only succeeded to the throne for three or four years, and his ministers had not yet completely returned to their hearts and died for him.
With the current situation of the barbarians, it is impossible for them to support a child to become a great khan, and the leaders of each tribe will not be convinced.
Nowadays, Amin is the strongest, he is able to conquer battles, and his military exploits are outstanding. As long as he has this determination, no one can beat him.
"Subordinates and others, everything depends on Erbeile's instructions."
Amin nodded with satisfaction and said loudly: "Now I order to launch a general attack on Shenyang and capture Shenyang as quickly as possible. All harvests this time belong to me personally. Whoever grabs it first belongs to whoever."
When everyone heard this, they were very happy.
Isn't the reason why they are willing to come to war just to rob money and people?
Amin's decision is in line with everyone's wishes. Who is willing to refuse the free benefits?
They knew that Amin was trying to win people's hearts, but everyone didn't mind and wanted to get the benefits first.
Everyone said in unison: "Thank you Erbeile, I will obey your orders."
Afterwards, all the generals returned to the battlefield, commanded their soldiers, and launched the fiercest attack on Shenyang.
Except for the men and horses attacking the city gate, most people rushed directly to the city wall with ladders.
This time it was no longer an siege by thousands of people, but an army of tens of thousands attacking the city together.
I saw that the city wall outside was densely packed with barbarian soldiers attacking the city. Although some people were constantly being smashed down and dying, they could not stop the footsteps of others at all.
The two generals on the Shenyang side were still fighting outside the city, unable to provide unified command and could only rely on the soldiers on the city walls to defend the city consciously.
Soon someone rushed up to the city wall and started fighting with the people on it. Then more and more people climbed up the city wall, and a melee started on the city wall.
At this time, Zhang Shijie had already reached the city gate. The city gate opened and let him back into the city.
But if I want to close the city gate again, I can't do it.
The soldiers from behind swarmed in, unable to close the door even if they tried. The barbarian army followed closely to cover up the enemy. The men and horses from both sides were intertwined and poured into the city gate together.
Shenyang City has been destroyed, and the next step is the final battle.
Zhang Shijie looked back and saw this scene, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh.
"What a mistake that will lead to eternal hatred. I, Zhang Shijie, am the sinner of Da Chu. Commander, I can't help you."
After that, he raised the knife and wiped it on his neck, wanting to die to apologize.
Seeing this, the cronies around him quickly stopped him and took the sword from his hand.
"General, you can't. By mobilizing troops and horses now, we can still stop the enemy. We still have fifty or sixty thousand troops, as well as the young men in the city. We still have the strength to fight. General, please put the overall situation first."
Zhang Shijie had no choice but to give up when he saw everyone blocking him.
Then let's take another gamble. If we really can't hold on, we'll die fighting in Shenyang City to atone for our sins.
Zhang Shijie, who had made up his mind, calmly ordered: "Immediately send out fast horses to ask for help from the commander-in-chief. Tell the commander-in-chief the situation here and ask him to send troops to rescue. I hope he can save Shenyang City in time.
Yang Bingkun, you stay at the city gate, lead the soldiers, and prevent the barbarians from entering.
They must not be allowed to enter the city gate. I went to the top of the city to command the defense, hoping to hold on until reinforcements arrived. "
"Yes, my command."
Several of his generals took action separately.
Zhang Shijie came to the top of the city and looked at the soldiers fighting everywhere on the wall and the barbarian soldiers climbing up one after another. His heart felt cold. Shenyang was really over. He couldn't help but secretly hate himself for being too impulsive.
In this situation, the only thing we can do is take human lives. I hope we can hold on until reinforcements arrive.
Zhang Shijie issued an order to mobilize soldiers to fight against the city wall.
The battle between the two sides entered the most intense moment.
At the city gate, the narrow passage turned into a meat grinder.
The barbarian soldiers poured in crazily and charged inside. All the soldiers of Dachu blocked the gate of the city, blocking the progress of the barbarian soldiers. It was a real encounter in a narrow road, a hand-to-hand fight, life and death.
There were so many people crowded in such a narrow place that there was no room for shelter.
You stabbed my chest with a knife, and I slashed your neck with a knife, and we died together in the end.
One is rushing in, the other is not letting in, both are taking human lives to fill in. What we are fighting for now is morale. As long as one side loses morale, that side will be doomed.
Soon, the corpses piled up into a hill at the city gate.
The barbarian soldiers stepped on the corpses on the ground and rushed in, advancing step by step.
Along the way, the feet were covered with corpses. Every step forward was earned by countless people with their lives and blood.
The battle on the city wall was equally brutal.
Soldiers from both sides were continuously pouring onto the city wall, fighting selflessly.
A barbarian soldier raised his knife and stabbed into the chest of a Chu soldier. The Chu soldier was also brave. He jumped forward, hugged the barbarian soldier, and bumped into a barbarian soldier who had just climbed up.
The man had just climbed up but before he could stand still, he was hit by two people and knocked directly down the city. The two of them also rolled down the city and died together.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Shijie knew that he could not continue like this, so he personally led his elite soldiers to kill on the city wall.
Wielding the sword in his hand, he killed the enemies one by one.
Kill one person with one step and see blood with every step.
Such an intense fight made Zhang Shijie exhausted and he gritted his teeth and fought to the death.
The soldiers around him died one by one in front of his eyes, which made Zhang Shijie bleed with heartache.
Looking at the dozen or so soldiers left around him, Zhang Shijie said sadly: "Brothers, it was me who harmed you. I'm sorry for you."
Zhang Kang, the commander of the soldiers, laughed loudly and said: "General, why should you blame yourself? Brothers who have followed the general have already thought of today's results. In these years, I have enjoyed the blessings of following the general. Today, I fight side by side with the general, and there is nothing to die for." regret."
Zhang Shijie said loudly: "Okay, good brother, today we brothers fight side by side and share life and death. Even if we go to hell, we will still be brothers and kill with me."
"Kill, kill, kill..."
At this time, another wave of barbarians rushed up and killed Zhang Shijie.
Zhang Kang led his soldiers to meet him, and after a fierce battle, he never came back.
After Zhang Shijie killed five people, he was stabbed in the chest by a gun. He swung the sword in his hand and chopped off the enemy's neck, using up his last bit of strength.
A generation of generals sacrificed their lives for charity and sacrificed their lives for the country.
Although this man was greedy for success and made big mistakes, he could still be regarded as a hot-blooded good man if he could fight to the last moment.
As Zhang Shijie fell, the Chu soldiers were beaten and retreated steadily, and gradually retreated from the city wall.
More barbarian soldiers swarmed up and poured into the city. At this moment, the overall situation was decided and there was no way to reverse it.
Amin looked at the barbarian soldiers pouring into Shenyang City and knew that he had succeeded.
He couldn't help but feel a burst of ecstasy in his heart. Once he ascended to the position of Great Khan and consolidated his strength, the entire barbarian tribe, and even the entire Liaodong, would be his.
If you digest this
With the gains from this war, the strength has been restored, and riding in the Central Plains is no longer a dream.
Gu Qi came to A Min and whispered: "Master, Zhang Hu and the others have returned to the grassland."
Amin nodded and said to Gu Qi: "You lead our people into the city and get those important material warehouses into our hands. Don't take them all, leave some for others.
Don't conflict with others. This is a critical moment. Try not to offend others. I will rely on the support of these people to inherit the throne. With their support, it will be smoother. "
"Knowing the master, the slave will definitely handle it well."
Gu Qi agreed, turned around and went down.
Amin had already planned and made plans in advance.
We have also bribed some informants in Shenyang City, and they are very familiar with the situation in Shenyang. We have already found out about several important material warehouses.
Amin is now the big winner in life.
By evening, the barbarian army completely controlled Shenyang City and successfully occupied Shenyang.
······
When Yang Guangyuan, the commander-in-chief of Liaoyang, led an army of 30,000 people and arrived at Shenyang City, it was already noon the next day.
On the way, I met some refugees who had escaped from Shenyang and some defeated troops. After asking about it, I learned that Shenyang had fallen and had fallen into the hands of the barbarians.
Yang Guangyuan refused to give up and wanted to confirm it himself.
Now that it has been confirmed that Shenyang has indeed fallen into the hands of the barbarians, we can only do nothing.
He never thought that Shenyang would fall into the hands of the barbarians so quickly, and Liaodong would not be peaceful in the future.
Yang Guangyuan arranged for a fast horse to return the news of Shenyang's fall to Prince Teng of Liaoyang.
He commanded the army to retreat ten miles and set up camp, waiting for Wang Ziteng's order.
In this situation, he didn't dare to make the decision himself.
Once he fails, the responsibility is all his own, and he cannot bear it. All you have to do is obey orders.
By the way, Wang Ziteng began to feel restless after sending reinforcements.
In the evening, he received another request for help from Zhang Shijie, which made him feel so uneasy that he couldn't sleep a wink all night.
At noon the next day, when he received the news from Yang Guangyuan, Wang Ziteng sat down on his chair and said in despair: "How come they were defeated so quickly? There are a total of 80,000 people in Shenyang."
In Yang Guangyuan's letter, he also asked for instructions on what to do with the 30,000-strong army.
Even the 80,000-strong army defending the city was defeated. Going to attack the city with 30,000 of your own was no different than going to die.
But withdrawing it now is a bit unjustifiable.
Finally, he ordered someone to notify them and ask them to stand by where they were, waiting for his instructions.
Wang Ziteng here learned in detail about the situation and course of the Shenyang War, wrote a memorial, and rushed it over eight hundred miles to the capital.
At this moment, Wang Ziteng remembered Jia Cong's abilities and what Jia Zheng had told him.
Hey, why is this boy Jia Cong’s eyes so vicious?
It would be great if this kid could stay by his side.
Wang Ziteng summoned the generals and told everyone the news of Shenyang's fall.
"Everyone, I have just received an urgent report from General Yang. Shenyang has fallen and has been occupied by barbarians. It is extremely difficult to recapture Shenyang. The most important thing now is to strengthen Liaoyang's defense to prevent barbarians. Let’s try to make plans for Liaoyang again.”
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
I didn't expect that Shenyang would be lost like this. It was too fast, and there was no chance of rescue.
"Commander, are we just going to wait? What should we do if we don't find the next step?"
Wang Ziteng said: "I have sent the news of the fall of Shenyang eight hundred miles to the capital in a hurry to see the court's decision, and also asked General Yang to set up camp and wait for the opportunity.
We should learn from Zhang Shijie’s mistakes and not make the same mistake again. We are now defending Liaoning
Yang is the main target, waiting for instructions from the court. "
All the generals said in unison: "I will obey the commander's orders."
······
After Amin captured Shenyang, he did not go south to Liaoyang.
Instead, the leaders of each tribe, as well as the generals, led their barbarian soldiers to loot Shenyang City for three days, dividing the harvest of Shenyang City and using it to win people's hearts.
[In view of the general environment,
These three days are simply a feast for the barbarians and a benefit for the victors.
Amin also took advantage of the situation and announced the news that the Great Khan Hongtai had been assassinated.
He also actively recruited and bribed the leaders of the major tribes and a group of barbarian generals to support him in ascending to the position of Great Khan.
This is what Amin is most concerned about, and it is also the top priority at the moment.
Before he becomes the Great Khan, Amin is no longer prepared to start a war. The most important thing for him is to seize the position of the Great Khan as soon as possible.
After three or four years of preparation, I finally removed all the stumbling blocks.
When it's time to pick the fruit, there can't be any more mistakes.
He inherited the position of Great Khan early, controlled the entire barbarian tribe in his hands, and avoided any extraneous problems.
When he becomes a big man, stabilizes the domestic situation, and digests the gains from this war, he will take a look at the situation and make subsequent plans.
Seeing that he was almost busy, Amin summoned the generals to the big tent and had a showdown with everyone.
"Everyone, the Great Khan suffered an unfortunate death, which made us extremely sad. Now that Shenyang has been conquered, the overall situation has been decided, and it is time to take care of the Great Khan's funeral. However, the country cannot be left without an owner for a day. We should elect a new Great Khan to lead Our barbarian clan is heading towards glory, I wonder if anyone has a candidate that they like?"
General Aqi Ge said loudly: "Er Beile followed the old king in the north and south. He fought through life and death and made great achievements in battle. He can be a candidate for the new Great Khan. I recommend Er Beile to be the new Great Khan. Do you have any objections?"
Everyone else had benefited from Amin this time, so naturally it was not easy for them to object.
Besides, there was no better candidate than Amin who could convince them. Naturally, they unanimously approved it, and Amin naturally ascended to the position of Great Khan.
"I'll wait to see the Great Khan."
