The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 604 Outsmarting Runzhou

Seeing that the city gate creaked open, and there was no heavy gate inside, Yang Yong felt relieved. Damn it, these guys are too easy to be fooled. If you have to reveal your secrets, then half the night will be wasted.

Yang Yong suddenly raised his head, and Chongcheng laughed loudly, "Fugong Er, Shen Faxing, who do you think I am?!"

This sentence was like a thunderbolt from the sky. The five kings and all the soldiers at the top of the city stretched their necks and stared at their eyes one by one. After they saw it clearly, they were so shocked that they almost fell off the top and shouted: "Ah, Yang Yong? Hurry up, Close the city! Let the arrows go..." But it was too late.

The soldiers who had just opened the city gate knew they had been fooled at this time. Just as they were about to close the city gate again, Yang Yong rushed forward, shaking his hand and stabbing the city gate with a spear, and there was a harsh metallic sound. , where the sparks splashed, all the soldiers closing the city gates were knocked down, and the left one of the double city gates bounced back at once, hitting the masonry of the city gate, making a heavy muffled sound.

Here Luo Song and Yu Chigong also rushed forward, and flew the soldiers next to the city gate, and the city gate opened wide. The 1 men changed from their distressed appearance just now, roaring like a flood that broke the gate, and followed the general. Pour it into the city gate.

"Leader, Yang Yong has brought people in, hurry up and gather troops to block them!" Shen Faxing yelled, and the faces of Fu Gong Er and the other kings had already changed color.

Lin Shihong couldn't bear it anymore, he pointed at Shen Faxing's nose angrily and said, "Zhuzi, what's not enough and trick!" Saying that, he walked away.Lin Shihong went down from the top of the city, gathered his [-] cavalry overnight, opened the east gate and left.

Yang Yong led 1 troops to seize the city gate first, and asked Lin Wenyuan and Hou Junji to lead a team to guard here to welcome the soldiers of the rebel army who would enter the city. Then Yang Yong, Luo Song and Yu Chigong led Lead the rest of the troops to charge towards the city.

The princes and their entourage panicked and went down the horse path to the city, gathering their own soldiers and horses.At this time, there were still nearly 20 horses in the city, but they belonged to five families. Lin Shihong's 2 horses left, and he was no longer the leader, so he left in anger.

As soon as Lin Shihong left, Yang Yong's five beautiful wives entered the city with 10 horses. At this time, there were still four kings' troops in Runzhou City, and there were [-] to [-] people, but they were not united, because they were in front of them. Runzhou City is the site of Fugong Er. The other three kings saw that Yang Yong had more and more troops. Now the leader of the alliance is gone, and there is no one to direct them. They are doing their own thing. Taking advantage of the chaos, Li Zitong and Wenren Suian also ran out of the city with their own troops.

In this way, the soldiers fighting against the rebels in the city will only be Fu Gonger and Shen Faxing, and the total number will not exceed 8. Not to mention how brave Yang Yong and these generals are, the number of rebels who entered the city in two batches reached 11. Dominant, not to mention the quality, Yang Yong and his five beautiful wives, plus Luo Song, Yu Chigong, Hou Junji, Lin Wenyuan, any of these ten people can be called the enemy of ten thousand people, Fu Gong Er and Shen Faxing How could the soldiers of the two families resist it? In the light of the fire, the dead bodies of the two families were everywhere in the streets and alleys above and below the city.

Fu Gong Er and Shen Xingfa saw that the general situation was over, it was important for each of them to flee with their soldiers, and no one cared about the other.

When the sky was gray and gray, Shen Faxing finally withdrew from Runzhou City with the remnants of the defeated army, and jumped back to Piling in a hurry.

On the way to see if there were any pursuers, Shen Faxing stopped to check the number of people, and it was less than [-]. Among them, many of them were injured. His son Shen Lun, two cousins ​​Shen Faqing, Shen Faming, and general Hu Zongmin were all killed. Too bad!When the Five Kings met, he brought [-] Huzhou soldiers, but within a few days, only one-tenth of them remained, which was too embarrassing.

Shen Faxing beat his chest and wailed loudly. After being persuaded by his soldiers, he chewed the names of Yang Yong, Xu Maogong and others several times before returning to Piling with the remnants.

Fu Gong Er was in the same situation as him. Under the desperate protection of Feng Huiliang and Chen Dangshi and other generals, he only led more than 1 horses and withdrew from the north gate. Fortunately, Li Zhengdao, who was on the other side of the river, got the news and sent a navy to respond. , They boarded the boat and fled back to Jiangdu.

After dawn, Yang Yong's men captured Runzhou City.After discussing with Xu Maogong, Yang Yong and Xu Maogong decided to pursue and fight fiercely, not to give Fu Gong Er a chance to breathe, and let the generals Hou Junji and Lin Wenyuan stay to deal with post-war affairs, leaving them with 5 horses, and Yang Yong and Xu Maogong assembled With 25 soldiers and horses, including [-] sailors, they rushed to Jiangdu by land and water.

Jiangdu was a rare big city in the south during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It can be compared with Daxing City, the capital of the Sui Dynasty, and Luoyang, the capital of the East. The tiger is on the north bank of the Yangtze River, with distant mountains, swallowing the Yangtze River. , with beautiful mountains and green waters, the scenery is picturesque.Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was fascinated when he visited here once. He even planned to move the capital to Jiangdu, but he died here in the end.It can be seen that the influence and scale of Jiangdu at that time should be an international metropolis, more famous than Danyang (now Nanjing).

Runzhou is today's Zhenjiang, across the river from Jiangdu.When there are ten thousand soldiers, there are no boundaries, and when there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers, the ground is endless.Therefore, Yang Yong's army of more than 20 soldiers marched on both sides of the river. For a while, Yang Yong's rebel army overwhelmed the sky and overwhelmed them. In the river, warships of all sizes were crowded.

Both Yang Yong and Xu Maogong thought it was a tough battle, and all of Liao Yong's 20 sailors were pushed up, but the strange thing is that Yang Yong's men crossed the river without any resistance, breaking through several roads one after another. Strategic stronghold, until more than [-] people surrounded the city of Jiangdu, and the men and horses of Fu Gong Er did not see any attack.

They sent someone to inquire, and found that Jiangdu City was an empty city, and the men and horses of Fu Gong Er had disappeared without a trace. Except for the common people, there was not a single soldier of the Wu army in the huge Jiangdu City.

Yang Yong and Xu Maogong couldn't believe this was true at first, and thought that Fu Gong Er was playing an empty game. Later, they came to report that Fu Gong Er was defeated in Runzhou, and his buttocks were not warm in Jiangdu. I heard that Yang Yong attacked all fronts. , with 3 horses, most of them sailors, went down the river and went to Li Zitong.

Yang Yong was overjoyed, he didn't expect this insidious and cunning guy to be scared out of his wits, and he knows the current affairs, my god, if I knew this earlier, would I still need to use so many soldiers and horses?Thinking of this, he joked to Xu Maogong: "Military Master, you miscalculated this time, making a fuss out of a molehill, and taking Fugong Er too seriously, but the responsibility lies with me, and I take the leadership responsibility first."

The two talked and laughed, and just like that, Yang Yong took down Jiangdu without bloodshed.
