"Kill!"

Quartz rode on a horse, wielding an iron rod, leading hundreds of White Dragon Army cavalry and more than 200 Tartar cavalry to fight fiercely at the east gate of Shouzhang City.

Poof!

Quartz was as brave as ever, and the iron rod in his hand swept out and smashed directly into the chest of a Tartar cavalryman.

The armor on the Tartar's chest was dented, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, and then flew upside down.

"Kill, leave no one."

Quartz roared angrily, and led the White Dragon Army cavalry towards those Tartar cavalry, crushing over.

Li Zixiao did not participate in the battle, he followed on horseback, under the protection of a dozen guards, waiting for the news of Quartz's victory.

Almost after the time of two incense sticks, a blood-stained quartz, like a god, rode to Li Zixiao: "Sir, the East City Gate has been taken by me."

Eighty-seven of the Tartar cavalry were killed, and the rest fled from the city. ”

"Stone, well done.

Two hundred men were left to guard the gates, and the rest went with Benjue to kill them. ”

After Li Zixiao saw that the East City Gate was taken, he took Quartz and other cavalry again, and turned back to kill in Shouzhang City.

At this time, because of the killing of two thousand cavalry of the White Dragon Army led by Du Tengfei and Peng Hao in the city, the Tartars had been defeated and fled in all directions.

In Shouzhang City, the Yan family compound was originally the mansion of a wealthy merchant surnamed Yan, but at this time it became a place for the Tartars to detain the people.

In this house, more than 5,000 people were imprisoned, and more than 50 Tartar soldiers and more than 300 doglegs who had taken refuge in the Tartars were in charge of the guard.

Among the more than 5,000 people, nearly 2,000 were young and strong men.

Although these men hated those Tartars and doglegs one by one, the ferocity of the Tartars before still brought them too much fear, and no one dared to resist.

But some of these bloody young men have been secretly planning to escape, but they have never been able to find a chance.

At this time, the fierce fighting and shouting of killing from outside also reached the ears of these people in the house.

"Big brother, are the officers and soldiers entering the city, listen, there is such a fierce fight outside!"

In one room, several young men approached a middle-aged strong man and whispered.

The middle-aged man's face was grim, his eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he said in a low voice: "Brothers, if it is really the officers and soldiers who have entered the city.

This is a rare opportunity to get us out of the clutches of the Tartars, and I think I've had enough of these Tartars in the past two days.

Whoever wants to do it, stand up. ”

The middle-aged man's gaze swept over the many young men behind him.

"Brother Tiger, I'm going to do it with you, I've long been fed up with those tartars, and Wang Mazi's dog legs, this time fuck him."

Soon, a young man of five big and three thick men clenched his fists and whispered to the middle-aged man.

"Add me."

"And me."

"I'll do it too."

Soon, twenty or thirty young men responded to the middle-aged man's proposal and prepared to launch a riot.

"Hey, what are you doing, who let you get together again, separate from Lao Tzu."

It just so happened that at this time, a dogleg who had taken refuge in the Tartars walked in proudly and scolded these people.

The middle-aged man waited for a group of young men, and at this time they all stood up and walked over to the dog's legs.

"What are you going to do, do you want to rebel, you stop, come over again, don't blame Lao Tzu for not having long eyes on the knife in his hand."

The dog-legged man watched everyone approaching him, and he was also a little timid, raised the long knife in his hand, threatened the middle-aged man and others, and cheered himself up.

"you, brothers, go up together and him."

With the middle-aged man's roar, more than a dozen young men around him pounced together.

"Ahh Die. ”

When the dog-legged man saw the crowd rushing towards him, he was also frightened, screamed, and slashed at the crowd with the long knife in his hand.

The middle-aged man, who had learned martial arts and was extremely agile, turned sideways to avoid the knife, and then shot down the long knife in the dog's hand, and then the dogleg was knocked down by the people next to him.

"Damn, let you take refuge in the Tartars. Let you bully Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will beat you to death. ”

More than a dozen young men who pounced on the surrounding area immediately punched and kicked at this dog's legs, and they were chattering while beating everyone.

A moment later, the dogleg was beaten to death by everyone.

"What's going on?"

At this time, two more doglegs armed with long knives heard the movement coming from the house and broke in.

"Brothers, follow me!"

As a result, as soon as the two doglegs came in, they saw the middle-aged man holding a long knife and rushing over with a group of young men.

"Ahh

After a while, the two doglegs were killed, and the two young men in the room picked up the long knives and continued to follow the middle-aged man out.

"Rush!"

Poof, poof!

These young men in the house suddenly launched a riot, and under the leadership of the middle-aged man, they rushed out of the house and killed several waves of dogs in a row.

Luckily they didn't encounter the Tartars, and all the people who tried to stop them were the young men who had taken refuge in the Tartars.

"Don't kill me, don't kill me!"

In the face of the vigorous and menacing riots, several dog-legged people watched their companions in front of them being killed, and they were also frightened, kneeling down and begging for mercy.

Middle-aged men and other young and strong men who rioted rushed over and grabbed knives and guns.

"What the hell is going on out there? Where did those Tartars go? The middle-aged man stood in front of the two doglegs and asked in a cold voice.

A dog-legged man kneeling in front of him trembled and said, "We don't know, just now, the adults, no, it's the dog tartars, suddenly rushed out, and no one has come back until now." ”

"Erwa, go out and see if it's really the officers and soldiers who have come in.

The rest of us will come with me to rescue the other imprisoned brothers, we need more manpower. ”

The middle-aged man commanded.

Riots like this were happening in many places in Shouzhang City at this time, and the Tartars were too busy to take care of themselves, and they had no energy to take care of these people.

However, there are still some Tartars who are ruthless, and before leaving, they set a fire outside the houses where the people are being held.

"Help, who's going to save us!"

Inside a house, hundreds of people were being held inside, while the outside was covered in flames.

Because the doors of the houses were locked and the windows were sealed, the people inside could not escape, and they shouted and screamed, resounding with the cries of women and children.

"Quick, there are people here, extinguish the fire, save people."

Fortunately, many people around who rescued themselves in advance or were released by the soldiers of the White Dragon Army found these trapped people and launched rescues one after another.

The soldiers of the White Dragon Army continued to pursue the Tartars all the way south.

The Tartars, who originally fled towards the east and west, encountered the east and west, Li Zixiao and Li Ziwu, after the cavalry of the White Dragon Army.

was slashed and killed by the cavalry of the two White Dragon Army, and immediately let the Tartars know that the east and west sides were impassable, so they fled south one after another.

At this time, the southern gate was still in the hands of the Tartars, and more and more Tartars fled here, and the White Dragon Army cavalry followed closely behind.

Before four o'clock in the afternoon, the cavalry of the White Dragon Army led by Li Zixiao to enter Shouzhang City killed the Tartars in the city, and drove those out of the city to drive them out of the city, completely controlling the entire Shouzhang City.

"Peng Hao, what's going on? Why is there so much chaos in the city? ”

However, when Li Zixiao drove away the Tartars, he found that the city was even more chaotic.

Not only can you see groups of women and children everywhere, but there are also many young and strong people fighting everywhere, as if they are competing for money, food, supplies, etc. left behind by the tartars.

"Sir, those are the people of the city." Peng Hao also said with a headache.

At this time, there were more than 120,000 people in Shouzhang City, and there was no one to manage them, so how could they not make a fuss.

At this time, there were even many people who formed a group and prepared to leave Shouzhang City, isn't this looking for death?

There are Tartars everywhere outside, and if you go out now, it is estimated that they will not go far before they will be discovered by the Tartar cavalry.

If he could leave, Li Zixiao didn't want to lead the army to stay in Shouzhang City, Li Zixiao knew that if he led the army to leave at this time, he would probably be bitten by the Tartar army outside looking for Duoduo.

You know, there were originally more than 10,000 troops under Duoduo, including four or five thousand men and horses, none of whom were in the city.

Therefore, don't look at the two battles yesterday and today, the White Dragon Army has severely damaged Duoduo's white flag inlaid department, but the main force of the white flag cavalry has still not been wiped out.

"Tell the guards of the four gates that they are not to let any of the people out of the city.

Peng Hao, you lead people to immediately block the warehouse where the Tartars store money, grain and materials, no one is allowed to approach, and if anyone dares to rob, they will be killed.

Du Tengfei, you lead your troops to inspect the city, prohibit all the people from moving around at will, separate them according to the streets, and put down their weapons for the time being.

Anyone who dares to attack our soldiers without authorization will be regarded as a rebel and will be killed.

Take those people as a team of 100 people, choose a captain, a thousand people as a leader, choose a captain, and 10,000 people as a fort.

And I shall appoint a man of repute among them to be the governor of the castle for the time being, and let them come to me.

In short, Benjue must see order in the city completely restored before it gets dark. ”

Li Zixiao had a cold face and gave an order to the generals of the White Dragon Army around him.

"Yes, my subordinates are commanded."

Immediately, all the generals of the White Dragon Army took orders to go, and the guards of the city and the patrols of the patrols began to restore order in the city with all their might.

However, it seems easy to restore order in the city, but it is very difficult for Shouzhang Castle, which is in a mess at this time.

Especially those who have obtained weapons, it is not easy to get them to obediently lay down their weapons.

What's even more troublesome is that some of the young men who huddled together, obtained weapons, and also found the Tartar store money and grain warehouse, and they saw the money.

How could they easily give up those money and food, they all wanted to keep it for themselves, even in the face of the White Dragon Army, they dared to fight.

There are also those ignorant people who want to escape from the city as soon as possible and avoid the Tartars, who were stopped by the White Dragon Army at the gate of the city, not only did not understand, but scolded the White Dragon Army for their obstruction.

The number of the White Dragon Army in Li Zixiao's hands is still too small, and they can't use brutal killing methods like Tartars to deter those people.

In the face of so many people in the city at this time, many of them young and strong men, they also obtained weapons, and the situation was very difficult to control.

More than an hour passed, and seeing that the sky was about to get dark, the White Dragon Army still failed to fully control the situation in the city, which made Li Zixiao very angry.

"Report, sir."

"How's it going?"

Li Zixiao looked at a White Dragon Army cavalry who rushed back and asked anxiously.

"Returning to the lord, General Peng Hao has suppressed the east of the city, and the resistance of a small number of mobs has restored order in the east of the city.

General Du also restored order in the north of the city, and the two generals left more than 100 people in the east and north of the city respectively, responsible for managing the people there.

At this time, General Du was leading his army to the west of the city, and General Peng was leading people to the south of the city. ”

"Okay, I got it. Go to the north and east of the city, and let the commander of the castle who has been chosen there come to me at once. ”

"Yes, the subordinates retired."

"Report, sir, the South City Gate sent someone to deliver the news, there are some armed mobs on their side, who are forcibly storming the city gate and need support."

Immediately, another cavalry of the White Dragon Army came over to report to Li Zixiao.

"Ziwu, you bring 300 cavalry to support the southern city gate, but anyone who dares to storm the city gate and hold weapons will be regarded as a rebel."

"Yes, my subordinates obey."

At this time, Li Zixiao knew that he could not be soft, and those mobs who dared to take the lead in making trouble, disobeyed the command, and refused to lay down their arms must be severely punished.

It is also very necessary to make an example at this time.

At this time, Li Zixiao faced two biggest problems, one is that more and more people gathered at the city gate, hoping to get out of the city.

In fact, they were captured by the Tartars and locked up in this strange county, which frightened them for the past few days.

At this time, when they saw that the Tartars had finally been beaten away by the officers and soldiers, they wanted to flee from here immediately, away from the Tartars, but they didn't think so much at all.

Moreover, these people, most of whom are ordinary people, have no weapons, and just beg the White Dragon Army to open the city gate and let them out of the city.

Like the south city gate, there are still a few mobs who dare to hold weapons and forcibly storm the city gate.

At the same time, the second problem is the new resistance forces in the city.

Most of these rebel forces are young and strong teams that have gathered.

When the White Dragon Army defeated the Tartars, these young men launched a riot, killed a few Tartars and those doglegs, and obtained weapons.

Immediately, they also found a lot of warehouses where the tartars stored their money, and in the face of the temptation of the gold and silver ingots, these young men went completely crazy.

They first fought each other for gold and silver, and as the White Dragon Army arrived, they formed a group to fight against the White Dragon Army.

Fortunately, at this time, the four gates of Shouzhang City are still in the hands of the White Dragon Army, so that even if there is chaos in the city, it can leave Li Zixiao a chance to rectify.

"Come, and tell the people who are gathered at the gate of the city, that it is getting dark, and that it is not safe to go out of the city.

When it was dawn tomorrow, Benjue promised to let them out of the city, and each person was given a pound of food, and Benjue said that it counted. ”

In the end, Li Zixiao came up with such a way to delay for the time being.

First stabilize the people who want to get out of the city, these people are the largest in number, and he can't be ruthless, so he can only find a way to pacify them first.

Then, take advantage of tonight, let Li Zixiao have the time to free up his hands and first deal with the stubborn and stubborn mobs in the city.
