Chapter 458: The Burning Blood of Taiyuan City!

There was not much time left for Wu Jie to operate.

He made two plans. If the rebels in the city successfully burned the Jin army's food, they would get twice the result with half the effort. The morale of the Jin army would be damaged, the difficulty of the entire battle would be greatly reduced, and the winning rate would be greatly improved.

If it is not burned, we will have to fight the Jin army with real swords and guns.

As for how to use real swords and guns, Wu Jie also made arrangements. He followed the old rules and led the Jin army into an ambush, but this strategy may not be successful.

On the evening of November 13th, Wanyan's mother arrived in Shouyang and stopped to rest and prepare for a fierce attack on the Song army in Shouyang the next day.

By this time Wu Jie had arrived in Qi County.

Unlike the winding mountain road that Yang Zheng took, Wu Jie's main army advanced rapidly on the flat ground.

According to the normal daily march of ancient infantrymen of sixty miles, they would arrive in Taiyuan on the morning of November 15th.

On the evening of the 13th, Taiyuan City was not peaceful. In the busiest place in the south of the city, people were being beheaded.

Last month, the Jin army captured a group of rebels in the city, involving hundreds of people. Later, Wanyan's mother said that everyone within a mile radius was killed.

These days, everyone in that area, no matter men, women, old or young, has been arrested.

They are the ones being killed right now.

Some people around showed numb expressions, and they watched in silence as the heads were chopped off one by one.

In the past few months, they have seen too many scenes like this.

A neatly dressed little boy looked at the children of his own age in the execution ground and asked his father: "Father, what did they commit and why did they kill them?"

His father quickly blocked his mouth: "Don't talk nonsense."

I saw the big knife falling, the head rolling on the ground, and the blood staining the snow red.

A young man who was tied up shouted loudly: "The gold thief is innocent! God will punish him!"

After saying that, his head was chopped off, and his blood was sprinkled on the snow, still steaming.

Another person shouted: "I can die today, but there will be thousands of me in the future! I can't be killed! Heavenly principles and justice can't be killed!"

After saying that, the big knife fell, and his head rolled to the ground, but his eyes were still wide open, as if glaring at the executioner.

There was a young man around him who clenched his fists tightly and his whole body was tense. Another man pulled him hard and whispered in his ear: "The time has not come yet!"

That night, the heads of more than 300 people were hung on the towers of Taiyuan City. Blood flowed from their heads and necks, leaving long lines of blood on the city walls.

At two o'clock in the morning on the 14th, in an inconspicuous little house in the east of the city, an old man in his fifties said: "I have received the latest news from Magistrate Zhang. The imperial army has arrived in the past few days.

We will arrive in Taiyuan, and then we will besiege Taiyuan City. Whether we can regain Taiyuan will be decided in one fell swoop!"

"General Manager Zhang, in recent months we have suffered heavy casualties. We only have a few hundred people left. What else can we do?" Wang Shen said. He saw his comrade's head being beheaded last night.

Zhang Sizheng said: "Burn the Jin army's food."

As soon as he said this, the scene became quiet.

Zhang Sizheng said: "Prefect Zhang came here with news that the Jin army's food is in the abandoned Chenghuang Temple in the west of the city. It is heavily guarded there, so we need more people to join in."

"As you saw last night, everyone has become numb. No one is willing to fight against the Jin army anymore. Wang Shi, who has been calling for many years to go north, didn't see anyone. Everyone has lost confidence."

"No, no! Young man, you make up your mind about one thing too easily!" Zhang Sizheng shook his head and said, "I have been observing the public sentiment in Taiyuan City during this period, and the people's anger has reached its limit."

Wang Shen was obviously a little excited. His eyes turned red and he lowered his voice and whispered: "So many of our people were killed, but they were watching from the side!"

"They can only watch! No one tells them what to do or how to do it. Everyone just wants to live!" Zhang Sizheng said, "Inform everyone to prepare for an uprising after dawn on the 15th!"

"Hundreds of people?"

"That's right, hundreds of people! Tomorrow when Master Wang arrives in Taiyuan, we will use a few hundred people to ignite the long-suppressed anger in Taiyuan City!" Zhang Sizheng raised his glass, drank it down in one gulp, and said in an understatement, "I have already been

You damn person, when Wang Zhen died in battle, as the general manager of the imperial reinforcements, I failed to save Taiyuan and have no face to go back. We will go and die tomorrow."

Everyone picked up the wine glasses, remained silent, and drank the wine in one gulp.

On the 14th, in Taiyuan City, there were already rumors everywhere that the Song army was coming.

On the same day, after Wanyan Hujia deployed his defenses, he went back to rest.

"Taiyuan City is extremely strong. It is impossible for the Song Army to capture Taiyuan quickly. Once the generals return from Shouyang, we will attack again and wipe out the Song Army in one fell swoop!" Wanyan Hu Jia said to his subordinates.

Mou Ke Wuli did not say: "Shangguan, do you want to conduct a thorough inspection of the city today to prevent anyone from causing trouble at this time?"

"So many people have been arrested. Even if there are still people causing trouble at this time, it is not a cause for concern."

"Will the people in Taiyuan City take advantage of this opportunity..."

"Those assholes, they don't dare!"

Early in the morning on the 15th, Wu Jie's main army arrived at the gates of Taiyuan City.

After Wu Jie arrived, the first thing he did was not attack the city but beat drums.

He ordered all the drummers in the army to start beating the drums, and the sound of the drums was so loud that the people in the city could hear it.

In the morning, it was still the busiest place in the south of the city. The Jin army escorted the people who were to be beheaded today, and many people surrounded it.

A woman was kneeling on the ground, and the executioner raised his knife. Just as the knife was about to fall, a crossbow arrow flying from nowhere suddenly penetrated the executioner's temple.

The executioner tilted his body and the knife in his hand fell off.

At the same time, a loud voice shouted: "Master Wang is here! Kill the gold thief!"

In an instant, dozens of people shouted: "Master Wang is here! Kill the gold thief!"

I saw people around me pulling out daggers hidden in their clothes and rushing towards the surprised Jin Jun.

Wang Shen was the first to pounce, and he pierced the neck of a Jin Army soldier with a knife. The Jin Army soldier's face froze, and he pulled hard, and his trachea was torn open, and a large amount of blood flowed down.

Upon seeing this, the surrounding Jin troops rushed over quickly, and the place immediately fell into a melee.

People in the surrounding teahouses and wine shops poked their heads out.

People at the nearby vegetable market also heard the sound.

Soon, someone shouted in the nearby streets and alleys: "Master Wang is here! Kill the gold thief!"

A butcher selling pork pulled out two machetes from under the counter, jumped out, and shouted: "Master Wang is here! You are still hesitating! Kill all these stupid gold thieves!"

This sound was like throwing a lit match into a barrel already filled with gunpowder, instantly igniting long-suppressed emotions.

After the people in the vegetable market reacted, those holding knives took knives, those holding scales took weights, and those holding iron rods took iron rods.

On this day in Taiyuan City, starting near the vegetable market in the south of the city, people's anger was ignited.

Anyone who underestimates the power of the people will pay a heavy price!

Once the will is ignited, it cannot be extinguished.

Just like the Taiyuan defense battle in the first year of Jingkang, all the soldiers and civilians in Taiyuan resisted the Jin Dynasty, and all the soldiers and civilians followed Wang Zhen and died in battle for the country.

Every corner of this city is filled with the blood of heroes.
