Chapter 28 Siming

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Vow to wipe out the Huns regardless of their own safety,

Five thousand mink brocades mourned Hu Chen.

Poor Wuding Riverside Bones,

Just like a person in a boudoir dream.

General Li Mingzhong of the Jing vassal, who was ordered by Zhu Hengjia to conquer Siming Prefecture in the west, no longer had the high spirits he had before the expedition. He and his 9,000 troops had been surrounded by a 100,000-strong coalition of the Sicheng Cen clan and the Taiping Huang clan in Siming Prefecture.

It’s been more than a month.

This majestic city in southern Xinjiang has been dyed red with blood. The billowing smoke from the intense war has filled the entire city. A broken and tattered "Li" flag swayed in the wind, as if it would fall in an instant.

On top of the city wall, there were corpses lying all over the place, with blood flowing in the oars. The thick smell of blood filled the air, with a vague salty taste. The siege of the city continued, and the ferocious figures of the wolf soldiers below the city undulated like waves.

.The shouts of killing that shook the world were deafening. Arrows and bullets flew wildly with sharp whistles. The crazy atmosphere caused the soldiers of both armies to lose their minds and become demon gods who only knew how to kill??

"Commander, our army has repelled another enemy attack." Qi Chao of the Chinese Army reported the battle situation to Li Mingzhong.

"Let the soldiers seize the time to eat; dispose of the corpses on the city wall and be careful of epidemics," Li Mingzhong said sternly, as if he were an emotionless sculpture, but he was thinking in his heart, why haven't the reinforcements arrived yet?

At the foot of Siming City, Cen Leihan, the leader of the Cen clan in Sicheng, saw Sizhou men falling one after another, and his heart was bleeding: "Li Mingzhong, I have defeated Siming, I will skin you."

??

Lianzhou General Tong Yizhen, who was ordered to rescue Siming, finally arrived in Nanning with 6,000 soldiers and horses. When he arrived, Xuanhua, the capital city of Nanning, was surrounded by Guohua Tu Zhizhou Li Bao, local bandits Chen Shizhong and Yuan Wancai.

in.

"Brother Li, I heard that Qiu Ziqi, the prefect of Nanning, has a wealthy family and can spend a thousand taels of silver on a meal. When Nanning is captured, everyone will have a good life," Chen Shizhong said cheerfully. He is a famous big man in Nanning.

Bandits love to rob wealthy households.

"Brother, after we captured Nanning, the Qiu Ziqi family's money will be yours. Let me choose the beauty first." Yuan Wancai was Chen Shizhong's sworn brother, and he was the most lustful.

"The two leaders need to use more force to capture Nanning as soon as possible, otherwise it will be troublesome when Jingfan's reinforcements arrive." Li Bao, the governor of Guohuatu, was a little worried. Guohua Li was also a big chieftain in the past, but later due to various reasons

It fell. Li Bao always wanted to restore the glory of his family, so he took refuge with the Cen family in Sicheng, colluded with the local bandits, first captured Long'an County, and then surrounded Nanning Fucheng.

"Report, Jing Army reinforcements have arrived and captured Long'an County", a scout came to report.

"What? Jingjun cut off our retreat?" Li Bao was shocked.

It turned out that after Li Bao and others captured Long'an County, only 500 men were left to garrison, and the rest were taken to attack Nanning. Tong Yizhen was originally a surrender general of Ding Kuichu, and he was quite good at fighting. He found out that Li Bao and others were attacking

There were not many defenders in Nanning and Long'an County. Long'an was captured immediately, cutting off Li Bao's retreat route back to his hometown of Guohua Prefecture.

In order to eliminate their worries, Li Bao, Chen Shizhong, and Yuan Wancai had to withdraw from the siege of Nanning and counterattack Longhua. Unexpectedly, they were ambushed by Tong Yizhen on the way, and all three of them died in battle. Tong Yizhen took advantage of the opportunity to capture Guohua Prefecture, and then Return to the army to rescue Siming.

Tong Yizhen knew that Li Mingzhong's troops were in danger, so he only rested for one day in Guohua Prefecture before leading his army to kill Siming Prefecture.

In Jiangzhou, close to Siming Prefecture, Jingjun Tong Yizhen's tribe encountered six thousand men from the Cen Zhaowu tribe of the Cen clan in Sicheng, Huang Daigan from the Taiping Huang clan, and ten thousand men from the Yellow River Dragon tribe.

Cen Zhaowu was the son of Cen Leihan, the leader of the Cen family in Sicheng. Seeing that the Jing army's military formation was tight and difficult to break directly, he asked the Taiping Huang family's elephant soldiers to attack the Jing army's formation.

It turns out that Taiping and Si'en are rich in war elephants, and there were elephant taming guards during Taizu's time. Later, the guards were abolished, and the elephant taming guards had no war elephants. However, there are still thirty elephants in the private domain of Taiping Huang, the great chieftain. The first war elephant was organized into a war elephant force of 210 people.

Huang Daiqian was the son of Huang Yingpin, the leader of the Huang family in Taiping. When he saw that the Cen family in Sicheng invited his elephant army to fight, he was very proud and said to his general Huang Helong: "Long, it's up to you this time. Let the Cen family in Sicheng see it. Look at the power of our Huang family's elephant soldiers."

The Yellow River Dragon responded with a loud voice, and with thirty war elephants, he viciously killed himself and rushed to the Jing army's formation.

Each war elephant of the Yellow River Dragon Division carries three warriors, two archers, and a driver. There are four sword and shield bearers around the war elephant, a total of 210 people in front; Huang Dai cadres follow closely behind.< /p>

When Tong Yizhen saw the enemy charging into battle with war elephants, he immediately asked his gunmen and archers to shoot at the elephants. However, Tong's army lacked enough fire guns and the war elephants had rough skin and thick flesh, so it was difficult for arrows to cause fatal damage to them. After a while, The war elephants rushed to the front of the formation, flicking their trunks and stamping on their hooves, smashing the Jingjun's spear formation into pieces. Huang's infantry and cavalry took the opportunity to cover up and kill them.

The Tong army was defeated, and only 3,000 people retreated to Nanning Fucheng. Tong Yizhen was captured.

??

At the Cen Leihan Chinese Army Camp in Siming Prefecture, Cen Leihan, Huang Yingpin, Cen Zhaowu, Cen Zhaozhen, Cen Jilu, Huang Daiqian, Huang Helong and other senior generals from the Cen and Huang families gathered together and looked at the captured Tong Yizhen.

"General Tong, I heard that you are a surrendered general in the Jing army. Jing Fan is not kind to you, but are you willing to surrender to our army?" Cen Leihan said pleasantly.

"I am a defeated general, what's the use of keeping it with the big leader?" Tong Yizhen said dejectedly.

Seeing that Tong Yizhen did not refuse directly, Cen Leihan felt that there was an opportunity, "General Tong, as long as you are willing to shout to Li Mingzhong in Siming City and persuade him to surrender, I will reward you with the best village in Sicheng, and then reward you How about twenty slave girls?"

"Is there food and wine? I'm hungry after fighting all day." Tong Yizhen was a little tired.

Cen Leihan was overjoyed: "Come on, treat General Tong to the best wine and food, and use the best lamb."

??

Simingzhou City is filled with a chilling atmosphere.

More than a hundred wolf soldiers escorted Tong Yizhen and slowly walked to the city.

"I am Tong Yizhen, the general of Lianzhou who has been ordered by the King of Jingjiang to reinforce Siming. I would like to ask General Li Mingzhong to answer." Tong Yizhen, who had eaten and drank enough, was full of energy.

Li Mingzhong walked up to the city wall and asked coldly: "Is General Tong here to persuade me to surrender?"

Tong Yizhen was furious and cursed Li Mingzhong: "Li Mingzhong, you old man! You are so arrogant! How dare you underestimate the world's heroes? Do you think you are the only one in the Ming Dynasty who is unparalleled in loyalty and righteousness? I am here to tell you that I will supervise the country."

His Highness's 100,000 reinforcements are already on the way."

After saying this, Tong Yizhen ignored Li Mingzhong and turned around to leave.

When Cen Leihan heard Tong Yizhen's words, he became furious and ordered his men to behead Tong Yizhen outside the city.

The wolf soldier raised his sword, and Tong Yizhen's head fell to the ground.

Li Mingzhong on the city had tears in his eyes and bowed deeply to Tong Yizhen's body: "I will not let you die!"
