"Your Majesty, just now Ben Shuai led his troops to Suoyang City, preparing to meet Su Baotong for a while. But I didn't expect that now the gate of Suoyang City was wide open, and not even a single Xiliang soldier was seen on the city wall. Xue Rengui opened his mouth and said to Li Zhi.

"Suoyang City turned out to be wide open, which one did this Su Baotong sing. Is it because you are ready to learn from Zhuge Liang and play an empty city with us? Li Zhi said.

"Your Majesty, the minister feels that this Su Baotong is not making an empty plan. Instead, he was ready to lure the emperor into the city. If the minister did not guess wrong, there must be a spy of the Xiliang soldiers lurking in the dream. ”

"It is even possible that after our army enters the city, Su Baotong will lead his troops to kill a horse gun. At that time, I am afraid that the emperor will be trapped in Suoyang City. Xu Mao said openly.

"Now we have a hundred cannons in red coats, plus tens of thousands of grenades. Are you still afraid that he Su Bao will not be able to surround him? Cheng Yanjin said disdainfully.

"Cheng Yanjin is right, now is not the time of Sanjiang Yue Hucheng. Now that we have these advanced weapons in our hands, how can we fear that he will besiege the city? ”

"But if someone wreaks havoc in the city, it's something to worry about." Wei Chigong said.

"It's better to follow Li Tai's kid's way, and send someone into Suoyang City to give him a chicken dog without leaving it. When the time comes, it will be interesting to see what else he can do. Cheng Yanjin said.

"Your Majesty, I think our army can directly cross Shuyangcheng and then rush directly to Hanjiang Pass. set up camp outside Hanjiang Pass, so that you are not afraid of what Su Baotong will do. Xue Xiantu said.

"By no means, if this is the case, I am afraid that our army will suffer from the enemy. When the time comes, Su Baotong will lead the troops back to Suoyang City, then I will be the best. Xu Mao said openly.

"Your Majesty, Ben Shuai thinks what Lu Guogong said is very reasonable. Let Ben Shuai send two teams of men and horses into Suoyang City first, and leave him in Suoyang City first. Xue Rengui opened his mouth and said to Li Zhi.

"Since Brother Xue has decided, let's do it according to Brother Xue's method." Li Zhi nodded and said.

Seeing that Li Zhi agreed, Xue Rengui said to Zhou Qing and Xue Xiantu: "You two each bring 10,000 horses into Suoyang City. Be sure to clean up Suoyang City before sunset tomorrow. ”

"Don't worry, the marshal will do it. Guarantee that before sunset tomorrow, let the emperor and the generalissimo stay in Suoyang City. Zhou Qing and Xue Xiantu got up and said.

……

"Brothers, there is Suoyang City in front of you. From now on, we are going to conduct a carpet search of Suoyang City. Don't let go of any room, any place where you can hide people. Zhou Qing ordered.

Immediately, 20,000 Tang troops entered Suoyang City and carried out a brutal massacre in Suoyang City. All of a sudden, the city of Suoyang was turned upside down.

Su Baotong, who was thirty miles outside Luoyang City, naturally also received this news. was so angry that he gritted his teeth and pounded his chest.

"Damn the Tang Dynasty barbarians, they are so inhumane. Not only did the soldiers and civilians who slaughtered Sanguan, but now the people in Chain Yang City are not spared. Su Baotong roared.

Su Baotong never expected that Tang Jun would do things so decisively. Originally, Su Baotong thought that Jiepai Pass, Jinxia Pass, and Jietian Pass had all resisted stubbornly.

That's why the Tang army slaughtered the city, and Suoyang City did not make the slightest resistance. It stands to reason that the Tang army had no reason to slaughter the city. But now it was not as he expected.

"The generalissimo doesn't have to be angry, since the ancient road, he will succeed, as long as he can trap the emperor of the Tang Dynasty in Suoyang City. Even if those people are sacrificed, what does it matter. ”

And this incident will also arouse the hatred of the people of Xiliang against the Tang Army, and make those opposing voices in the country completely disappear. So the last general thinks it's a good thing. He Zongxian opened his mouth and said to Su Baotong.

"It's useless to talk about anything else now, so I can only wait for the Tang army to enter the city, and the commander will lead the troops to besiege Suoyang City. Avenge the fathers and villagers of Suoyang City. Su Baotong said helplessly.

"It is estimated that the Tang army will enter the city tomorrow afternoon, but the timber needed by our army has not yet been cut down. I'm afraid it will affect the marshal's plans. He Zongxian said.

"What are you going to eat, the commander has repeatedly emphasized, and it must be done before sunset today. Why is it still procrastinating? Su Baotong said angrily.

"Marshal Qiyu, it's not that the last general is ineffective in supervising it, but that the number of marshals is too large. There are some shortages in manpower. The military general who was in charge of cutting down trees said to Su Baotong.

"Marshal, it is better to send two more troops over and cut down enough timber as soon as possible. After all, the time has come to wait. The iron plate man spoke.

This Su Bao is one of the monks under his command, who are the Flying Bowl Monk and the Iron Plate Daoist. Although these two are dressed as monks, they are both ruthless.

"In that case, we will send another 20,000 men and horses to cut down the trees. Prepare well before it gets dark tomorrow. Otherwise, Ben Shuai will behead you. Su Baotong nodded and said.

……

The Tang army was killing in Suoyang City, and it was naturally impossible for the people to stick out their heads and be stabbed. Resistance is also indispensable.

But where are these helpless people who are the opponents of these wolf-like Tang Army. In the end, he had no choice but to abandon his family and business and go to Hanjiang Pass.

Even so, the Tang army spent two days and one night in Suoyang City, slaughtering 50,000 people in Xiliang. In the end, the entire Suoyang City was cleaned up.

Now that Suoyang City has been cleaned up, Xue Rengui escorted Li Zhi into Suoyang City. However, for the sake of safety, Xue Rengui ordered fifty red-clothed cannons to be transported to the city wall.

At the same time, Xue Rengui was also preparing to send a scout horse to conduct reconnaissance within a radius of dozens of miles from Suoyang City. In order to ensure that there are no ambushes near Suoyang City.

However, the wise man must have a thousand worries, and Xue Rengui has not had time to send a probe horse. Su Baotong started to do it here.

Su Baotong took advantage of the night to lead the Xiliang soldiers hidden around and came towards Suoyang City. It only took one night to complete the siege of Suoyang City.

However, since Su Baotong learned about the red-clothed cannon, he naturally did not dare to arrange a joint venture under the city. Therefore, Su Baotong lined up the company camp ten miles away from Suoyang City.

Overnight, millions of Xiliang soldiers surrounded Suoyang City. However, Xue Rengui in the city didn't know anything about it.

Early the next morning, before Xue Rengui had time to send out a scout, Zhou Qing, who was in charge of guarding the city wall last night, came to report. said that now the Xiliang Army is lined up ten miles away from Suoyang City. From a distance, the number of people is no less than a million.

This couldn't help but make Xue Rengui gasp, so he hurriedly took someone up to the city wall to check. Standing on the city wall, you can see the Xiliang Soldier Camp in the distance.

"Zhou Qing, what are you doing to eat, you actually let the family set up a big camp under your nose. You won't know until dawn. Xue Rengui said to Zhou Qing with a roar.

"Marshal, it's the beginning of the month. At night, it was out of sight, and the other party had set up the joint camp ten miles away. That's why the last general didn't find out. Zhou Qing lowered his head and said to Xue Rengui.
