Chapter 306: The Fall of Qingzhou (Part II)
Wing State
Looking at the city, there was a sea of flags, and the Hu people also felt the benefits of the flags. )
Under the banner, densely packed with Hu soldiers, these armies are connected end to end, and it is difficult to see the edge in the city, which has an army of 50,000.
In addition to the 50,000 army, there are 30,000 Han annex troops.
At this time, there were 30,000 Han attached troops, all of whom were attacking a county town, and under the county town, there were dense corpses, which were the corpses of the Han people, driving the people to attack the city, filling the moat with sandbags and lives, and 20,000 corpses had been filled.
A stream of upward rolling iron rushed onto the reef, and many Han soldiers fell down and died on the spot.
On the high observation platform piled up with mounds of earth, the Great Khan was expressionless, but he also knew that it was not appropriate to drive the Han army away, and ordered: "Order: Retreat!"
Where the gold was ringing, the Han army retreated like a tidal tide like an amnesty......
The Great Khan looked at the city silently, saw the tattered banners on the city, and the increasingly sparse enemies, and sneered: "Shoot one last time, let the defenders in the city surrender." ”
"Yes!" said a thousand households, and ordered them to go out, only to see a troop of cavalry pounce and shoot arrows at the city.
At this time, there was a sudden alarm call, faint sound of horses' hooves, only to see a knight, even ignoring the military regulations, disrupting the guards, running to the stage, he turned over and knelt: "Great Khan, there is an emergency military situation in Luoyang......"
Before the words fell, the soldiers had already pulled out their long knives, a sword light, looked at the Great Khan, and as long as he gave an order, he would immediately execute this person who broke the rules.
The Great Khan glanced at it, it was a centurion, frowned, this collision with the sweat was not trivial, but when he heard the news that it was Luoyang, the Great Khan still waved his hand and said, "Let him come and talk back!"
This centurion stepped forward and knelt down, crying and shouting: "Great Khan, there is news from the front, the army that went to Luoyang has been annihilated, His Royal Highness has been killed, and the Han emperor has occupied Luoyang." ”
"What did you say?" In the past few days, the Great Khan has not received news from Luoyang, and he is a little uneasy, and when he heard this, he only felt a "buzz", blood rushed up, and his eardrums suddenly sounded.
"Say it again!" the Great Khan asked, staring at him with a gloomy face.
The centurion spoke quickly again.
Da Khan listened, only to feel that his eyes were dark, and his body was shaking.
How can it be?
30,000 elite soldiers wiped out?
Previously, Hu Erbo sent news that Liu Man had surrendered in Luoyang, with the big city of Luoyang, and the newly attached Han army was supplemented, how could he be defeated so tragically in such a situation?
"You, you're talking nonsense, my son...... How could my son Khurbo die at the hands of the Han people!" The Great Khan's face was pale, he gritted his teeth, and squeezed out this sentence between his teeth, and when he said this, his face turned pale, and he was about to fall, so shocked that the surrounding guards immediately surrounded him and helped him.
"Great Khan, Great Khan!" the general was so shocked that his face was like ashes, and he shouted loudly, and said again and again, "Quickly pass on the doctor!"
Luoyang
"Your Majesty, it's still a little rudimentary here......
"Zhang Qing doesn't need to say much, this Luoyang Imperial Palace is going to be overhauled, and now is not the time, I don't have such luxury, I just care about my own enjoyment. ”
"Your Majesty is talking about ......"
A group of people were walking slowly in the garden. At this time, there is a light rain, and the rain covers the garden, although it is summer, but with the rain and wind, it feels cool, and the path is made of stone, and it is comfortable and dry to step on.
After a place to the west, there is a bamboo forest path, which is half-hidden with a palace valve, and every ten steps, there is a guard standing, which is the cool world.
Wang Hongyi walked along the mossy pebble corridor, thinking about things and thoughtfully, while Zhang Youzhi followed.
Zhang Youzhi was an outstanding person in the Dacheng Dynasty, with literary talent and good governance, and was deeply trusted by the emperor, and was one of the few civil officials who could often accompany the king.
At this time, he was accompanying the emperor and walking in this place.
Of course, Zhang Youzhi would not think that His Majesty came to him just for a walk and gossip, but at this time, he just had to follow with his hands down.
"Zhang Qing!" Wang Hongyi stopped and said, "It's been quietly spread in the past few days, right?"
"Yes, in the battle of Luoyang, I won a complete victory, 30,000 Hu people were all wiped out, and even the prince was killed. ”
Seeing that the emperor was in a good mood with a slight smile, Zhang Youzhi said.
"Although Luoyang is occupied, Qingzhou has not yet been obtained, and the next thing is to quickly take this land. ”
Zhang Youzhi said: "With Dacheng's deterrence, Qingzhou is only afraid that it will be difficult to resist. ”
"It's best to be like this!" Wang Hongyi said lightly.
Zhang Youzhi asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, do you want to send someone to persuade you to surrender?"
"If there is a desire to surrender, the messenger should also arrive at this time. Wang Hongyi looked solemn all of a sudden, and there was still a trace of mysterious light in his eyes, looking into the distance as if penetrating.
On the tripod, there is another wave of luck pouring into it, and this omen is Qingzhou.
Zhang Youzhi listened, glanced at Wang Hongyi, and awe surged in his heart, the emperor was sometimes so prescient, so he shut up and stopped talking about it.
But at this time, a person hurriedly came up, and Zhang Yu saw that it was Liu Yu, the new Xuande Lang of the Secret Literature Pavilion, who was in the seventh grade.
Liu Yu first saluted the emperor, and then bowed to Zhang Youyi, Wang Hongyi saw it, and smiled: "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Your Majesty, the special envoy of Qingzhou He Zhi came by boat to ask to see the emperor, and he is waiting at the palace gate now. ”
"So quickly, send the decree and let him go to the temple to meet him. Wang Hongyi thought for a while and said, "You don't have to wait until later." ”
"Yes!"
The envoy who came was He Changxing, who entered the temple in response to the will.
Although it is a corner of the palace that is opened now, but from the gate of the imperial city, I see a flat and vast field, there is a river in the north, surrounded by a white marble railing, far away is a majestic hall, along the official road is a group of guards, one by one standing motionless in the rain
He Changxing didn't speak for a while, and he didn't stand until he stood in front of the hall, and there was sweat behind him.
"Please come and wait here. The civil servant who led the way said, and went up the long steps in front of the palace, and he should have gone in to report it.
He Changxing stood, behind him were two attendants holding a brocade box, and the three of them stood outside the hall like this, waiting for Emperor Dacheng to summon him.
After a while, a eunuch walked out of the hall and shouted in a sharp voice: "Your Majesty has a decree, the envoy of Xuanqingzhou will meet you"
He Changxing straightened his coat and hat and went up the stone steps.
The two rows in the hall are all captains, all of them standing solemnly according to their swords, and they do not move at all.
He Changxing entered the hall, this hall is very wide and heavy, there are two rows of big pillars inside, a color of gold bricks polished to the eye, stepping on the temple feels deep, revealing coldness.
There were a few courtiers on the left and right, He Changxing didn't dare to look at it, he was led forward, and faintly saw a person sitting on the throne, so he knelt down, and the etiquette was completely the courtesy of the ministers when they met the emperor: "Qingzhou Festival General He Changxing, meet Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
On the high seat in the middle, Wang Hongyi was wearing the emperor's crown robe, sitting on it, looking down, only to see that this person looked very young, wearing the official uniform of Da Yan Cong's four grades, his face was resolute, less immature, and he knelt on the ground with his eyes lowered, very respectful.
Behind He Changxing, there were two attendants holding the brocade box, also kneeling down.
Wang Hongyi sprinkled slightly, looked intently, and saw that the red gas on the top of this person was gathered, like a red cloud, and the upper part of the red cloud was born with yellow gas, accounting for a quarter.
Looking closely again, a pale cyan natal qi stood upright.
Judging from the cloud qi and intelligence in front of him, this person is a newly established general, so the cloud qi has not yet been transformed, and there is not much condensation, but the red clouds are like clouds, indicating that he has a certain amount of military power.
Light cyan, it is the fourth grade, this person did not exceed the limit, and Wen Yan said at the moment: "No courtesy, flat body."
"Your Majesty Xie!" He Changxing and the three of them bowed to thank him, got up and stood with his head bowed.
Just a glimpse, He Changxing was shocked in his heart, the emperor on the throne was very young, his face was like a full moon, he sat calmly, and looked down.
He Changxing didn't have time to think, he took the attendant's box again, opened it and took out a book, bowed again and said: "Dayan is out of position, the world is in turmoil, my He family is just ordered to guard the frontier and wait for the Ming Lord." The emperor is wise and martial, and he is ordered by heaven, how dare the ministers resist the mandate of heaven, so he is afraid to ask for surrender and ask the emperor to learn from it. ”
He Changxing respectfully handed over the table of the book written by his uncle.
Because he had already mastered He Changxing's intention, Wang Hongyi was not surprised.
In his ears, the courtiers whispered in surprise, Wang Hongyi took the table from the hand of the chamberlain and watched it.
Well, the writing is very good...... Looking at the content above, Wang Hongyi nodded.
Looking at He Changxing standing below, Wang Hongyi had some impressions of this person, I heard that He Zhi in Qingzhou had no children under his knees, and he had a son soon, so he raised his nephew by his side to be the future heir, should he be talking about this person, right?
He Zhi went to the table of reduction, and sent an heir to send the table of reduction, showing that the sincerity is indeed not low.
Closing the table in his hand and handing it to the waiter to put it away, Wang Hongyi's tone was much softer: "I understand the meaning of your family, I can not be for my own selfishness, but for the sake of the people of Qingzhou, which really makes me happy...... Now that Hulu is raging, Qingzhou is taken over by the imperial court, which is more conducive to fighting Hulu...... I agreed to take over Qingzhou. ”
"He Zhike is the political envoy of Qingzhou, stabilize the situation in Qingzhou, all civil and military officials, retain them for review, you will go back, and I will send 10,000 soldiers to follow. ”
He Changxing bowed to thank him, and the mountain shouted: "Long live!"
On July 21, He Zhi surrendered and served as the political envoy of Sanpinbu in the imperial court.
The three counties of Qingzhou heard the news, shocked, no less than the army to cross, immediately to Luoyang on the table, the three county officials also basically appeased and retained, Qingzhou was immediately unified, the imperial court controlled all the territory south of the Yellow River, the hinterland of the Central Plains all fell into the control of Dacheng.
In Yizhou, who resisted the Hu people, when he heard about Luoyang, he immediately went to the table and asked Wang Shi to rescue.
"Immediately deliver the surrender table to the emperor, and ask the emperor to send reinforcements immediately!"
"The minister will not disgrace his life!" The envoy who went to Luoyang, with the descending table, set off overnight, and walked towards Luoyang non-stop.
I saw that the dragon qi with yellow in the red was rolling, permeating Luoyang and Qingzhou, and in the hinterland of the Central Plains, a red dragon with golden scales fluttering, cheering ups and downs
