Chapter 541(1/2)
Dasan Pass.
A heavy rain poured.
Just as the 100,000 coalition forces and four or five hundred martial artists were chasing Zhao Lianjiang in Kaifeng City, a team of more than ten people took advantage of the heavy rain and secretly climbed the Dasanguan city wall with the help of cloud claws.
The person who led the team was Ye Erlang.
The patrol guards soon discovered something was wrong, "There is an enemy situation!"
With the order of Ye Erlang, more than ten sleeve arrows were shot out, shooting the five patrol sentries into hedgehogs.
They dispose of the bodies, put on the clothes of the patrol soldiers, and walked towards the city gate. Along the way, they met two teams of patrol soldiers, who followed the agreed slogan and hid.
They had only one target, that is the city gate. When they approached the city gate, the guard of Dasan Pass shouted, "Who is coming?"
Ye Erlang said, "We are patrol guards in Section 4, and there is a city wall above it that collapses. I want to borrow some tools and rush to repair it overnight."
The guard said, "You should not come here for this matter."
Ye Erlang laughed and scolded, "It's so heavy rain, you are hiding from the city tower, but we are wet on it, it's not fair."
The guard laughed, "This is the purpose of you here."
Ye Erlang said, "Not."
There were hundreds of officers and soldiers stationed at the city gate, all of whom were sheltering from the rain. There were only a dozen people here. Seeing that the time was right, Ye Erlang waved his hand and there were more than ten crossbow arrows.
Puff puff.
Seven or eight people were shot in the arrow, and the guard general was clever. He turned over and escaped the disaster, rushed towards the inner Cao, "The enemy is coming!"
The gong sounded loudly.
It happened that at this moment, a thunderclap drowned out the sound of the gong.
Ye Erro ordered, "Cut off the cables and open the city gate."
Among the inner calamity, dozens of soldiers who received the news rushed out with weapons in their hands. Ye Erlang drew his sword, "Big bull, tiger, you guys continue, the rest follow me!"
After saying that, Ye Erlang led everyone to rush over.
The huge city gate slowly opened, revealing a gap.
Outside the city, the sound of horse hooves sounded.
The officers and soldiers on the city wall noticed something was wrong and immediately beat the war drum.
The Yinyang Army and the Yu King's army have been in a stalemate here for nearly two years. The Yu King's army originally had 100,000 defenders, but a month ago, they transferred 40,000 troops to Kaifeng. They did not expect that the Yinyang Army would launch an siege today.
The guardian of Dasan Pass, Peng Shuai, was a veteran who had been through the battlefield for a long time. The battle of siege was not the best opportunity to choose the rainy night. He made a quick decision and ordered a counterattack.
However, under the cover of night and heavy rain, the arrows lost their accuracy, and the tung oil and tin oil could not be ignited quickly. What's more, the wolf smoke from the beacon tower could not be ignited on time and warned the rear in time.
In an instant, Yinyang's army attacked the city.
Losing a long-range attack weapon, Ye Erlang sneaked into an entrance, Yinyang's 200,000 soldiers and horses started a hand-to-hand battle with the Dasan Pass guard at the city gate.
Fighting sounds were everywhere.
The Yu Wangjun, who was originally sleeping, suddenly encountered this situation and was a little at a loss. What's more, the spies who had long been lurking in Dasan Pass kept giving orders that were contrary to the guards with forged documents.
If you are usually a little discerning, it is not difficult to see through. But at this moment, the situation is critical, and the orders received by the guards in the pass are contradictory and they cannot effectively organize a counterattack. The scout who quickly asked for help from Chang'an was also killed by the masters of the martial arts organization one by one.
The city gate was broken.
Fighting turned into massacre.
Under Dasan Pass, corpses were everywhere and blood was everywhere. They were soon washed away by rain and flowed into the pass.
The river water is dyed red.
A hundred feet away, Zhao Langjiang was wearing golden armor and holding a long sword in his hand. He looked at the Dasanguan city wall. Behind him were General Su Zhengyuan and Stone City Lord Chu Xiang.
In addition to the expanded Yinyang Yicong, 100,000 of these 200,000 were Su Zhengyuan's old troops in the Western Expedition and 30,000 were the old troops in the Western Chu, and now it has become the main combat force on the eastern front of Yinyang City.
For this night, Zhao Langjiang prepared for a long time.
He walked through Shanhaiguan with high profile and fought a bloody road. He used the ten-year battle with Li Qingcheng as bait, which led to King Yu and King Shu making a mistake in judgment and blocked Kaifeng City with heavy troops, trying to keep Zhao Langjiang behind.
The fact is that when Zhao Langjiang broke up with Yang Xiling, he changed his identities with Li Bufan and rushed to Dasan Pass without stopping.
Li Bufan learned the cross-cutting sword technique, his martial arts are close to the Tongxiang Realm, and the vivid masks of Leijiazhuang as a cover. No one would suspect that Zhao Langjiang was not the one who caused huge waves in Kaifeng Prefecture.
In order to make the other party think that he has the chance to kill him, he even bribed Boss Fan of the Yellow River Gang and released fake news that Zhao Langjiang was poisoned, and all of this was for this moment.
The only people who can detect the problem are Xiao Jinyan and Li Qingcheng, but Zhao Langjiang firmly believes that
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
They won't expose this.
The only thing that upset him was that he broke his promise, a swordsman's promise, used Xiao Jinyan and Li Qingcheng.
But Zhao Langjiang understood that now he is no longer the swordsman ten years ago. He is the Lord of Yinyang City, the most orthodox prince of the Ming Dynasty, and the master of the future Ming Dynasty!
Swordsmen have become a thing of the past.
Ten years ago, when he was determined to compete for the world, he gave up his identity as a man in the martial arts world, promised a thousand dollars, and did what he said. He seemed heroic, but in fact he was extremely stupid.
Now, what he wants is this world!
...
Zhao Langjiang said sternly, "Get the flag!"
A white horse Yicong sent a battle flag, and Zhao Langjiang said, "Look at me, I will put the battle flag on the top of the city of Dasanguan!"
Standing horses are running wildly.
Zhao Langjiang held the battle flag and rushed towards the city gate.
When Yinyang Army saw Zhao Langjiang, they all made a way, and the Yu King's army, who were standing in front of him, slammed the enemy with their swords.
Zhao Langjiang swung out with a knife in the air, and all the corpses were buried.
The King of Yu had long heard of Zhao Langjiang's reputation. After this knife, I wonder how many people were afraid of the courage. They fled everywhere and were killed by Yinyang Army who were asked to both sides.
Thirty zhang, ten zhang.
Zhao Langjiang came to the front of the city, pulled the reins, and jumped up with the momentum, rolled in the air, landed on the head of the Dasanguan city, and inserted the Yinyang Battle Flag heavily on the city wall.
The heavy rain gradually stopped.
The sky is getting whiter.
The Dasan Pass, which had been stalemate with the Yinyang Army for several years, was broken, and this battle only took one night.
The 50,000 Emperor Yu army was killed in battle, and 20,000 were left, including the guard Peng Shuai, who became prisoners, while the Yinyang army suffered only 4,000 losses.
Zhao Langjiang seized Dasan Pass, and the next moment, he issued an order to massacre the city. Two hundred thousand Yinyang army attacked Baoji Mansion and killed everyone when they saw it. In one day, 20,000 prisoners of war and 100,000 people all became the dead souls of the Yinyang army.
King Yu, who was originally immersed in Zhao Langjiang's murder and offered treasures to treasures from the golden sword, was watching fish by the water when he learned that Dasan Pass had fallen and Zhao Langjiang was not dead. He was so scared that he fell into the water. He quickly ordered the Chang'an guard general Fang Yu'an to resist the enemy and asked the King of Shu for help.
However, what they were waiting for was not reinforcements from the King of Shu, but news that Jianmen Pass was captured by Lu Liangce and the fall of Shu.
Lu Liangce was once a capable general of the King of Shu, but the King of Shu believed in slander and killed Lu Liangce's family. Lu Liangce defected to Zhao Langjiang and led his army into Shu.
King Zhu Ligong of Shu was trapped in the palace, set fire to the palace, and buried him in the sea of fire.
Lu Liangce did not let it go, but hung the burnt body of the King of Shu at the city gate and exposed it to the sun for three days and three nights. The King of Shu's thirteen children and more than twenty wives and concubines were all poisoned.
The Yinyang Army, which captured Dasan Pass, did not stop and advanced all the way eastward. At this moment, Chang'an guard Fang Yu'an surrendered and handed Chang'an City to Zhao Langjiang. Ten days later, 200,000 troops arrived at the city of Luoyang.
King Yu surrendered!
The stalemate of the world for ten years was instantly decided within two months, and the two princes died and surrendered to an end.
The world's general trend is settled!
The former King of Jindao, the Lord of Yinyang, officially won the world and unified the country. After entering Luoyang, Zhao Langjiang changed his name to Zhu Yi and announced that the world would officially ascend the throne on the first day of Yu Zhengchu. His reign was Tianyou, and the capital was set in Luoyang.
At this time, the missing imperial seal for ten years has reappeared in the world. Several old eunuchs presented the jade seal with the "Lord's Order and Heavenly Given" to Zhao Langjiang.
The heroes in the world responded one after another.
The people have suffered from war for a long time.
Before the catastrophe of heaven, at its peak, the population reached about 61 million. During these ten years of war, there were shortages of food. Today, the population is less than 30 million, which is a sharp drop of half from ten years ago.
No matter how bad peace is, it is better than a good war.
The people do not expect a wise ruler in the world. They just want to have a stable life that can fill their stomachs and support their families. That's all.
The world's hegemony has begun to manifest.
After receiving the emperor's imperial edict, the warlords and local separatist forces responded one after another and sent envoys to Luoyang. On the one hand, they surrendered to Zhao Langjiang, and on the other hand, they also took the opportunity to win the greatest interests for themselves when the world was settled, and gain a share of the pie under the new reshuffle order.
Originally, there were nearly 300 prefectures in the world, and nearly 300 prefectures all expressed their return to the territory of the Ming Dynasty. Not only that, state prefectures were also established in the border areas such as Fenghuangling and Hulukou.
This has caused trouble to the aide group led by Chai Gongwang. The former people from the Yinyang City Lord's Mansion also moved to Luoyang. Zhao Langjiang did not reject the surrendered bureaucrats. On the one hand, he rewarded the heroes who followed him to fight, and on the other hand, he appeased and surrendered officials, and gradually consolidated his own regime
