Chapter 322 Fire (the last two days, ask for the moon
On September 15th, Yang Yizhen was sanctioned.
The army rested for another month and immediately returned to the court.
When the number came out was 30,000, but when the team was in the process, it turned into 50,000! There were also 5,000 elite cavalry, and their combat power was more than doubled?
More importantly, Fang Ming's control over these 50,000 troops is far from comparable to before.
Just like now, under one order, the army immediately changed direction halfway and headed towards Shanchan.
At that time, Dali had eight prefectures, four counties and four towns. Shanchan Prefecture was one of the eight prefectures, and its prefecture was still in Shanchan City. Its jurisdiction was composed of Kunming, Jinning, Songming, Lufeng, Yimen, Anning, and Rocci counties.
"Brother Tai... Look at this beautiful river and mountain, it's really a painting... I didn't expect that there is such a paradise in Dali Country..."
Fang Ming rode his horse and whip, guided the country, and was free and easy.
He was telling the truth. As he walked over, he could see that the Shanchan Mansion was indeed singing and dancing to peace, and the people had no food on their faces. Obviously, the granaries were full, and in ancient times, it could have been called "Great Governance".
However, every time Fang Ming said something, cold sweat fell off Gao Shengtai's forehead next to him.
His Gao family has been infiltrating Shan Chan for a long time. At this time, the entire Shan Chan was almost at the point where he only knew that there was the Gao family but not the Duan family emperor!
Originally, he wanted to take advantage of this military merit to divide Shan Chan into a fiefdom and completely lay a foundation that will never be easy forever!
But now Fang Ming has made such a "sudden attack", which makes him feel quite out of control.
The army arrived at the prefecture of Shanchan City, but saw the four gates closed tightly. Fang Ming's face sneered: "Who is this city lord? I am here, how dare you close the city gate?"
Fan Hua immediately stepped out and said, "This landlord is named Gao Dacheng, who has always been greedy and has no sense of power..."
"snort!"
Fang Ming snorted coldly and said, "I have no idea about the king's law, go again!"
Ba Tianshi immediately slapped out and shouted in front of the city gate: "The King of the South of Dali Kingdom, the General of the Protected Kingdom is here. The civil and military officials in the city will not come out to greet them quickly!"
Whoosh!
The answer to him was a feather arrow.
As soon as the Batian stone fell, the feather arrow shot straight into the ground, but only the tail feather was still trembling.
I saw soldiers standing densely on the city walls, with swords unsheathed, bows and crossbows on them, aiming at the army under the city, and they actually treated them as enemies.
A civil servant looked like a civil servant and poked his head out and shouted, "I have the responsibility to defend the territory. The prince's duty is in the southwest, but he led his troops to invade me. What's the intention?"
"Haha... it's reversed! It's reversed!"
Fang Ming laughed furiously and said to Gao Shengtai beside him: "Brother Tai, is this kind of talent from your Gao family? Hum?"
Gao Shengtai stopped sweating coldly at this time. Knowing whether the Gao family will survive or die in the future, they are all here today. He hesitated: "Master, please give your subordinates another chance and let them go and persuade them to surrender... As both Dali ****, how can you kill each other!"
"Okay, you'll try it!"
Fang Ming's eyes narrowed slightly.
This is the last chance. If Gao Shengtai can lift the butcher knife blatantly, then this level will be passed. Otherwise, the entire Gao family will have to be uprooted without leaving any one!
"Gao Dacheng, have you ever recognized me?"
Gao Shengtai thorned his teeth and came under the city wall.
"Tai Guan'er... it's not that I don't know the general, but that his Duan family is too bullying. If we follow his conditions, my Gao family's foundation will be destroyed today..."
The tall horse on the city wall was heartbroken.
Gao Shengtai was also silent. How could he not know that this Shanchan is the foundation of the Gao family. With it in hand, even if the court fails for a while, there is a chance of making a comeback. Even if it is like the Yang family, it will eventually be burned!
Once you hand over it, there is really nothing left! To kill or cut, it is all in the other party’s thoughts!
Unfortunately, it’s not the time!
Gao Shengtai glanced at Da Jun behind him, his face full of gloom.
The Gao family's subordinates suffered heavy casualties in the battle to pacify Yang Yizhen, but now they are less than 5,000! Fang Ming holds tens of thousands of troops in his hand!
How many soldiers are truly loyal to the Gao family in Shanchan City? Two or three thousand will reach the top!
Such a huge difference in strength comparison is no longer a hit with an egg, it is simply lifeless!
Of course, if you give the Gao family some time to rest and recuperate, tens of thousands of troops can still be gathered together, but who can know that Fang Ming was so unreasonable? He came to the point and even brought the elite Gao family and the head of the family?
"If you don't surrender, you will still maintain a glimmer of hope if you surrender!"
Gao Shengtai gritted his teeth and shouted at Gao Dacheng on the city wall: "Are you going to receive the family law?"
Gao Dacheng's body shook, obviously thinking of the coolness of the Gao family's method, but he immediately sneered: "You yellow-mouthed breasts, do you really think that you are the head of the Gao family? Today I will treat you first!"
Wave your hand: "Shoot the arrow!!!"
Amid the hissing sound, a rain of arrows fell, Gao Shengtai slapped his horse back, and was shot on his shoulder with an arrow on his face with shame: "Master, my subordinate is incompetent, this person has lost his mind..."
"Um!"
Fang Ming was too lazy to care whether these two people were really a trick or a trick. Anyway, Gao Shengtai's attitude has already been shown.
As for the city? He didn't plan to give those people a way out. At this time, the other party resisted to the end, which was quite his wish.
"Transfer the three armies!"
Fang Ming sneered at the corner of his mouth: "Zhan City is tall and has a bad intention and has a close relationship with the traitor Yang Yizhen. At this time, he rebelled with the flag and was the first-class rebel. He had made merits and no faults in killing him. I will give it to me!!!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!!!"
Tens of thousands of troops shouted together, and the sound of the sound shook the whole field. The thousands of soldiers at the head of Shanchan City were immediately scared and their hands and feet trembled.
After all, the Duan family of Dali has been in charge of national weapons for generations, and with the support of their strength, Dayi has an irresistible effect!
Not to mention, the head of their Gao family is still outside!
The most important thing is that the difference in strength and weakness is that they can’t see any hope of victory at all!
"Duan Zhengchun, how dare you?"
The tall beard on the wall of Shanchan opened its anger, his eyes full of blood.
At this time, no matter how Shan Chan was penetrated into a sieve by the Gao family, he was nominally still in Dali territory. No matter what, he never expected that Duan Zhengchun would dare to trample on the rules like this!
"Beat the drum! March!!!"
Fang Ming sneered.
He naturally knew the consequences of doing so. If he really wanted to say that he would be guilty of disobeying the imperial edict, starting a war, and making a ill-gotten plot, and not being able to escape!
But so what? Does the current emperor Duan Shouhui dare to cure him?
If the power exceeds the limit, the rules can be trampled on.
Although, Fang Ming also knew that this trampling rule would not be of much benefit, and would even attract more hostility.
But so what?
The Yang family has been destroyed, and as long as the Gao family is not as good as before in the entire Dali country.
And he will also change from a rule-breaker to a rule-making person!
"Come on, Brother Tai, let's go to the high platform to watch the battle!"
After the three-way drum passed, Fang Ming never looked at the city wall again. After all, from the beginning, the other party's fate was already destined.
Shan Chan is so rich and has a profound city, and is truly the foundation of the emperor, so he cannot tolerate others' involvement.
In history, Shanchan has always been the Dongdu of Dali, facing water on three sides and backing on the other side. Even in real history, the Mongols took some effort to attack.
Although Fang Ming believed that he was not as elite as the one at that time, the defending city at this time was not the entire Dali, but was just a remnant force of the Gao family.
The general trend is more on your own side, even if you polish it, you can still beat the other party to death.
Sure enough, the siege of the city seemed to be under great pressure on the defenders of Shan Chan.
In the afternoon, a riot came from the city wall, and the city gate immediately opened.
"Prince!"
Ba Tianshi came over and reported: "The guard has killed Gao Dacheng, open the city gate and surrender!"
"Very good. We must take strict supervision of prisoners, but there should be no shortage of all food items..."
Compared with the Mongolian destruction of Dali, this time it was just an "internal conflict", so naturally there might be more investations. Fang Ming's goal was only the Gao family, so he would not pursue others much.
"Just be sure not to let go of the Gao family's thief!"
As soon as this sentence came out, Gao Shengtai next to him was shaking, knowing that Fang Ming would kill all the remnants of the Gao family in the city.
"Brother Tai, this is your family, so you will be executed by yourself. How about it?"
Fang Ming looked over like a hawk.
"Abide by the order of the commander!"
Gao Shengtai swallowed the blood surged from his chest and agreed expressionlessly.
No street fighting.
By the time Fang Ming sent a large army to control the four gates and enter the city again, all street battles had ended.
"Report to the general, Gao... the remnants of the thieves occupied the inner city and are still fighting stubbornly!"
"Oh! Go and see..."
Fang Ming brought Gao Shengtai and others to the edge of the inner city.
The city in the city is also built quite sturdy, with the direct clan members of the Gao family and the loyal forces, with at least over 10,000 people!
"Brother Tai, I hope you can tell the difference between family affairs and state affairs!"
Fang Ming clapped his hands, and several catapults were pushed into the front of the formation.
"Is this... tin oil?"
Gao Shengtai looked at the black oil bullet and seemed to think of some possibility. His face suddenly turned white and there was no blood.
"good!"
Fang Ming seemed to be sneering: "We often use vine armor in Dali, soaked with tung oil, and then burned... I originally planned to use these to deal with Yang Yizhen, but I didn't expect that the other party was so vulnerable, so I started eating here!"
"good!"
Gao Shengtai's face was as deep as water, and he gritted his teeth and came to the formation: "Take it!"
"Duan Zhengchun is so arrogant, let's fight him..."
A general of the Gao family showed resentment on his face. Before he could finish speaking, a blood plum appeared on his chest and fell down.
"If you hear this in our camp in the future, you will be killed without mercy!"
Gao Shengtai drew out his long sword and said coldly: "Let our people attack with fire!"
boom!
A fuel bomb fell into the inner city, sparks splashed, and the fire spread rapidly.
As long as it is a city, it will inevitably be crowded, and the fire prevention level in ancient times was even more worrying. Several catapults fired in succession, and fires suddenly ignited.
Chapter completed!
