——The intention to surrender is written in a decent manner on the book, the font is neat, and it is stamped with the big seal of Zheng Guogong.

Sure enough, he waited.

Kulbo kept his composure on his face, and his eyes showed joy, others didn't know, he knew that it was a huge gamble.

If Luoyang does not surrender, although he shouts to attack the city, in fact, Huerbo understands that he does not have the confidence to take the city.

And being able to get Luoyang in one day really has too many advantages for controlling the battle situation in the future.

Khurbo's troubles were all forgotten for a moment.

Wang Hongyi, Cheng Jun, and eldest brother, these seem to have faded under the joy of Luoyang.

Now that he has moved into Luoyang in one fell swoop, the news has not yet been transmitted, and the cavalry can be used to seal the lock news, and cooperate with Luoyang to ambush the Dacheng army.

If this battle can kill, or at least defeat Wang Hongyi, with 30,000 horsemen Hu Erbo can get out of the tiger prison in one go, in the emperor's defeat, the situation of the early peace of Gunzhou, the army is forced, Gunzhou will immediately surrender the Hu people.

As soon as Gunzhou is obtained, echoing the situation in Yizhou, it is possible that the north will be completely pacified, and both Gunqing and Qingzhou will be subdued, and in this case, the situation in the world will be completely changed.

How could such a prospect not make him secretly happy?

"Your Highness....... Seeing the fourth prince looking at the book, the soldiers were stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but exclaim.

"Nothing. He waved his hand to stop talking, and unfolded it to continue to look at it.

Hu Erbo's gaze fell on the person below: "This table is written by your father-in-law?"

He is very fluent in Chinese, and continues to ask.

"Yes, when the minister was ordained, it was the prince who said so. The messenger Zhang He said.

What Hu Erbo wants is actually just the result of the other party's submission to himself, and for others, he just asks casually, and he doesn't care whether it's true or not.

Seeing the messenger Zhang He replying like this, he laughed and said: "Your family is a practical hero, his words are good, and he is very literate. ”

As he spoke, he looked down at the book in his hand again.

There was a decision in his heart, and then he said: "Since Zheng Guogong sincerely returned to this king, he gave less reward, and it seems that my khanate is not generous enough, so you go back and tell your lord that when this king came, he had already invited his father Khan, and he could be crowned King Luo, and this king can still be the master of this matter." ”

The royal decree of the reward had already been given, and he waited for his surrender, and when he saw what was expected, he ordered the decree to be taken out and delivered into the hands of the envoy.

At this point, the messenger Zhang He's face showed a look of relief.

Whether his own life can be saved is also on this trip.

Now that this matter has been done, not only has I saved my life, but also my future is guaranteed when I go back, why don't you relax?

Although he is a Han Chinese, although he is not a loyal person, he still has some resistance to the four princes of the Hu people, but the lord has made a decision to be a courtier, what else can he do besides trying to protect himself?

The messenger Zhang He was overjoyed, but couldn't help but be gloomy, and saluted and said: "In this case, the minister will go back to report to my lord!"

He took the sealed royal decree with both hands and retired.

Arrange a time to take over, and Khurbo ordered someone to send the envoy out.

"Listen!" Hu Erbo looked at the surrounding generals and ordered in a deep voice: "Regarding the surrender of Zheng Guogong, you must temporarily block the traffic so as not to leak the news, and ...... After taking over Luoyang, the original banner remained unchanged...... Those who dare to leave the city or stay away will be killed. ”

"No!" Although the people around didn't know what the fourth prince was thinking at this time, Nian knew that this was a layout that was extremely beneficial to his side, and he immediately agreed.

At noon that day, the gate of Luoyang City was opened, and Liu Man, the Duke of Zheng Guogong of Luoyang, welcomed the army into the city according to the etiquette of surrendering to the ministers.

30,000 iron rode into Luoyang City.

Because of the surrounding checkpoints and roads, they have long been locked by the Hu people, and it is difficult for news to come out.

Tiger Prison Pass

Wang Hongyi's army has reached the city.

Looking at the head of the city, a sea of red flags, connected from end to end, can not be seen at a glance, stretching for ten miles.

The tiger prison was closed, and the general in charge of guarding looked at the ten-mile camp outside, his face was gloomy and the atmosphere was depressing.

"There are 100,000 people, which is staggering!"

"It's only 100,000 soldiers, and it can still be blocked for some time, but in the hands of the Cheng army, I heard that there are siege weapons, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to resist as before. ”

"Send someone to Luoyang for help,......" the general said.

"Two groups of people have been sent to Luoyang to ask for help, but there is no news back so far, which is really ......worrying. ”

"Reinforcements can't come in time, although Tiger Prison Pass can resist the Dacheng army for a while, but it will take ...... a long time."

"Send a few more groups back, in case something happens on the way, and the first two groups of people do not reach Luoyang City? Even if Luoyang does not send troops, these people should also come back, why is there no news at all now." ”

"That makes sense, and ...... mention this to the general. These lieutenants, at the checkpoint, vigilantly watched the situation outside, talking and discussing in a low voice.

Behind them, groups of soldiers, armed with bows and crossbows, or prepared with rolling stones, prepared to guard against the attack of the army.

Tiger Prison Pass, continuous large camp.

Tiger Prison Pass is the eastern gateway and important pass of Luoyang, connecting Songyue in the south. The north is bordered by the Yellow River, the mountains are staggered, it is a natural danger, there is a tendency of "one husband is a pass, ten thousand people are not open", and it is a place where soldiers of all dynasties must fight.

Wang Hongyi stood on a high platform and looked out from afar, and behind him, many generals stood solemnly, also staring at the magnificent city visit and the natural danger.

Wang Hongyi looked at it carefully, for a long time, and then said: "If it is a one-man pass, ten thousand people will not be opened, and there are also 10,000 defenders above." ”

After a pause, he ordered: "Call someone to shout and persuade you to surrender!"

After speaking, Wang Hongyi stared at this level, making an assessment and calculating in his heart.

The defense of the Tiger Prison Pass is very strong, if there is no Thunder Car, to take this level, it is really necessary to pay several times the price, and it may take several months, and it may not be able to attack the city.

If you use a thunderbolt, it may take several days to have an effect, right?

Frowning slightly, there was already a shouting voice in the distance.

This was an officer, escorted by several cavalrymen, rode his horse towards the checkpoint, and of course, when he ran to a distance of one hundred and fifty paces from the checkpoint, he stopped, a distance beyond the reach of a bow and a crossbow.

This officer is a high-sounding officer selected from the Dacheng army, shouting and persuading him to surrender under the city, even Wang Hongyi can faintly hear it, and presumably the people in the city will listen to it really.

There was a commotion in the city, but in the process of shouting, the city guard ordered the arrows to be released, at such a distance, of course, it could not be shot, but this has already surfaced the attitude of the level.

Wang Hongyi didn't need his subordinates to report it, and when he saw this scene, he smiled coldly: "Since that's the case, let's start bombing the city!"

There were already preparations, and at the sound of an order, twenty thunderbolts were pushed from the line to the front, and under the order of the general in charge, they began to load the boulders.

Boulders can be found anywhere and are large enough to supply siege cities.

"Ready, put!"

"Boom, boom, boom!"

As the standard-bearer raised it, it fell sharply, and one after another boulders made an arc in the air, and with a whistling sound, they swooped down on the fortified city walls.

"Boom. "On the walls, countless sparks and debris collided.

"Ahh

Immediately, there were a number of casualties, which made the soldiers and officers in the vicinity all pale and staggered backwards, and panicked.

Although the guards and soldiers on the Tiger Prison had heard of it before, and knew that in the hands of the Dacheng army, there were siege weapons, but it was only then that they saw with their own eyes the power of this thunderbolt.

This thunderbolt is much more powerful than a regular catapult, and every time a boulder hits the area, the flying debris alone can kill people, and the flying sparks can ignite if there are flammable materials nearby.

Not to mention the heavy slamming on the city, causing the entire city wall to slam violently.

"General!" someone shouted around him, looking at a general.

This will also turn pale and clench the hilt of the knife.

Constantly bombarded by such sharp weapons, no matter how strong and heavy the city wall is, it can't withstand the long-term boulder bombardment, I'm afraid that in a few days, the city wall will finally be blasted out of a gap, right?

The biggest reliance of the Tiger Prison Pass is the thick city wall, if the city wall breaks through the gap and puts the outside Dacheng army into the city, the consequences are simply unimaginable!

So this will order: "Send someone to Luoyang again for help, quickly!"

"No!" A moment later, two teams of cavalry marched out of the checkpoint and hurried towards Luoyang City, and at the same time, several carrier pigeons were released in the city, also flying in the direction of Luoyang City.

Luoyang City checkpoint

The air was steaming and smelling of blood, and I saw that there were several corpses of messengers in the room, all with expressions of disbelief on their faces, and a group of people kneeling and tied up.

The young Hu people squinted at the head of the hundred households, and behind him, there were ten personal soldiers, and just standing up, they exuded a dangerous aura.

"It's the third batch, and the Tiger Prison Pass is really asking for help again and again!" said the centurion, "and the reception and shooting of carrier pigeons, have you paid attention?"

The messenger from the Tiger Prison was welcomed into the city after informing the guards of the checkpoint, and was immediately detained, most of whom were still very knowledgeable about current affairs, but there were always a few who were unconvinced and had to be killed.

If there was no resistance, the Hu people tied up these people and sent them to Luoyang, which was arranged by Khurbo.

"Centurion, they've all paid attention, they've called up the marksman, they're all paying attention, and the falcon. A ten-captain replied.

In order to lure Wang Hongyi into the army, Hu Erbo did not inform the Tiger Prison Pass of any news, and did not send people to deliberately retreat, because he was afraid that Wang Hongyi would see through the plan.

Of course, the news of the capture of Luoyang by the army could not be concealed for a long time, and it was not required to retreat, so as to quickly lead the army into the pass, and no more troops would be added.

At this time, Hu Erbo was desperate to hope that the Cheng army would break through the tiger prison as soon as possible and enter Luoyang.
