Chapter 84 City Break
At dawn, the sky was hazy, and Ningwu commanded the army arrived outside the city of Kuohan.
Looking at the city where the gate was closed, Zhang Ji rushed forward, raised Han Sui's head with a bamboo pole, and shouted loudly: "Han Sui is dead. If you know each other, open the city and surrender quickly. The master is kind and may be able to spare your life!"
"Surrender! Surrender!"
After Zhang Ji called out, the soldiers behind him all shouted loudly.
The defenders were frightened when they saw Han Sui's head, and Liang Xing was no exception. But now he was the boss and his butt was not hot yet. How could he surrender like this? And he also firmly believed that the government army could not fight in, so he shouted loudly on the top of the city: "Zhang Ji, don't be fooled by me here, I will not open the door. How can you stand by me!"
When Zhang Ji heard this, his eyes were low and he clenched his fists secretly. He really had no way to deal with Liang Xing now, not to mention the rush, he did not carry siege equipment. Even if there were, they could not conquer the number of defenders in the city and the fortifications of the city.
So, Zhang Ji looked back at Ning Wu and asked Ning Wu to give in.
Ning Wu was very calm and asked Zhang Ji to continue chatting with the rebels in the city. He had enough time to spend.
In fact, Lu Bu has already brought people to the back, and he is just here to attract the attention of Liang Xing and other rebels.
Last night, it was not only the two Qiang tribes Dianna Qiang and Huang Qiang who came to surrender to Ningwu, but also several heroic generals stayed in Guihan. Their subordinates were not large, so they did not follow Han Sui to attack, but it was enough to open the city gate.
Seeing that the official army did not dare to attack, Liang Xing was immediately proud of himself, but it was indeed not as expected.
In order to show his courage, he continued to provoke the official army on the top of the city, not only pretending to be a comparison, but also exciting.
At this time, at the north gate, the city gate slowly opened with Lu Bu's loud shout.
The heroic commanders of the Beifeng Qiang, Beihe Qiang and other tribes took the initiative to welcome Lu Bu into the city and informed Lu Bu of the specific deployment of the troops in the city.
After learning about it, Lu Bu divided his troops into four teams, led by Wei Yue, Song Xian, Hou Cheng and Hao Meng, and each occupied the important roads. He himself led his troops straight to the south of the city to open the city gate to welcome Ningwu into the city.
Lu Bu led the Wolf Cavalry Camp to fight from the north, but the rebels in the city were unable to resist and they dispersed.
"General, big things are not good, big things are not good, some official troops are coming in!"
A soldier ran to the south and hurriedly reported to Liang Xing.
"fart!"
Liang Xing scolded, thinking that it was the trick of the government army and deliberately spread rumors to disturb the morale of the army, so he immediately asked someone to drag the soldier down and chop him down.
Not all the official troops were placed outside the city, how could there be them in the city?
During this period, no official army had any troops mobilized.
Therefore, Liang Xing didn't believe it at all.
It was not until more and more soldiers fled here and the noisy sounds became more and more fierce that Liang Xing realized that the problem was very big.
Soon, the wolf cavalry camp commanded by Lu Bu had already reached the south of the city. The defenders in the city seemed to be large in number, but in fact they had no fighting spirit. When they saw Lu Bu, they did not resist and just fled in scattered places.
In this way, Lu Bu easily killed the city south.
Because it was difficult to ride a horse under your crotch and attack the city head, Lu Bu temporarily gave up this idea, opened the city gate, and let the soldiers outside come in.
As soon as the city gate opened, Zhang Ji did not hesitate and immediately called the army to rush into the city.
As soon as the official army entered the city, many people were panicked. The generals who originally supported Liang Xing began to run away at this moment.
"Everything comes up to hold on! Hold on!"
As everyone betrayed their relatives, Liang Xing yelled hysterically at the top of the city, and his face was also unconcealed.
However, no one listened to his orders anymore. Once panic was contagious, more and more people would escape.
Liang Xing watched the government army enter the city, but there was no way.
He abandoned the city and wanted to escape.
Ning Wu shook his head when he saw it outside the city. Compared to Han Sui, Liang Xing was much stupider.
Unfortunately, Liang Xing failed to escape in the end. As soon as he got down the city tower, he was captured by Zhang Ji's nephew Zhang Xiu, tied it up in a ball with hemp rope and threw it in front of Ning Wu.
"Taishu, the villain knows that he is wrong! Please give me a chance. From now on, the villain is willing to go through fire and water for you!" He couldn't move his hands and feet, and Liang Xing knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, begging for mercy regardless of his face.
This is completely in the sky and underground, like the clamor on the city before.
Ning Wu just smiled at this, what have you done long ago!
It took nearly three hours to finally pacify the rebels in the city.
The number of people captured was more than 70,000.
Compared with Ning Wu's soldiers, there are still two or three times more troops. If you really want to fight hard, Ning Wu may not be the opponent.
Of course, all this has to be attributed to the Qiang tribe who abandoned the darkness and turned to the light. They announced Han Sui's conspiracy and said that if the rebels abandoned their weapons, they would never make things difficult for them. This made the Qiang people willingly put down their weapons.
Among them, Song Jian had the most troops, followed by Han Sui's subordinates, and Ma Teng had fewer troops, but in terms of the number of people killed in the battle, Ma Teng's power ranked first.
After staying up all night, Ning Wu was also a little tired.
The city of Shihan has been taken down, and Ning Wu handed over the matter to Zhang Ji, and he went to the palace of Song Jian to sleep.
By the time we woke up, it was almost evening, and Li Ru, Xun You and others also arrived in Kuanghan one after another.
Seeing that Ning Wu was safe, Li Ru felt relieved.
As for the captured Qiang people, Zhang Ji didn't know how to deal with them, so he came to ask Ning Wu for advice.
Ningwu had no hobby of killing and surrendering or slaughtering the city. These captured Qiang people were of great effect to him. As for the specific matters, Ningwu did not say anything, but just asked Zhang Ji to favor these Qiang people and stay in the city of Kuanghan. After he finished cleaning up Ma Teng, he would decide how to deal with these Qiang people.
Zhang Ji received the order and retreated.
After several days of rest in Kuanghan, Ning Wu finally waited for news from Ma Teng.
After Ye Ma Teng escaped, he ran westward and fled to Guzang, the county town of Wuwei County, to the west, to rest.
After Ning Wu learned about it, he immediately ordered his troops and advanced to the west.
The army marched for several days and arrived outside Guzang City and stationed in the fields ten miles away.
Knowing that Ning Wu led his army to come, Ma Teng, who was guarding the city, looked very bad. He didn't expect Ning Wu to come so quickly, so he obviously was not going to let him go.
In response, Ma Teng did not choose to evacuate. He was waiting for the troops from Anding and Beidi counties, with at least 50,000 or 60,000 troops. In addition, he occupied Guzang City and confronted Ningwu, and perhaps some others might fight.
But I am afraid that hope will be shattered in everything.
On a clear and clear morning, a quick horse was sent to report early: Stable and the two counties in the northern region fell one after another, and our soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and all the living were captured by Huangfu Song.
After hearing this news, Ma Teng's heart was chilling.
Chapter completed!
