Chapter two hundred and eighteen fierce blade
Thousands of troops and horses flocked to Yuzhong City.
The momentum was overwhelming.
The north, west and south sides of Yuzhong City seemed to be boiling.
Countless slaves frantically rushed towards the city wall holding long ladders.
Many people were shot into hedgehogs by arrows in the middle of the charge, or were smashed into a pool of bloody mud by cannon stones.
But this does not dampen their enthusiasm in the slightest.
Or rather crazy.
The barbarians in Xihai are crazy about killing.
Encouraged by Yang Zheng's various measures, the suppressed ferocity was completely released, and he killed people on the city wall again and again.
Wearing dozens of wounds, he could not fall down. He smiled ferociously and used his last strength to drive the blade into the chest of the defender.
Some people drag their intestines and still move forward,
However, the defenders on the city wall are also extremely brave, especially a group of dark-brown soldiers, carrying swords and shields. They appear wherever the situation is critical.
The first general was none other than Deng Zhong, holding two ring-headed knives, jumping and slashing among the crowd, and fell to pieces in front of him.
"After the city is broken, the one who ascends first will be the captain. The soldiers who broke the city will be transferred to the slaves to be returned, and they will be rewarded with pastures and houses. Those who died in battle will have their brothers and heirs freed from the slave status and put into the waiting list." Xuan Yilang was in the slave array. shouted repeatedly.
The slaves' eyes instantly turned blood red.
Many people were originally strongmen with their heads in their belts. They fought from the Western Regions to the West Sea, and from the West Sea to Xiping. Their bloodthirsty desire never faded. It was only under Yang Zheng's iron-blooded wrist that they had to lie dormant and wear sheepskin. Gnawing grass.
A few decades later, the Jie people actually migrated to Bingzhou from the Western Regions.
They are of the same lineage as the Xihai Hu people.
Of course, the military bravery of the Han people is not weaker than theirs.
However, after the false prosperity of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the upper class has become corrupt.
One after another, cowardly sheep seize high positions, are cruel internally, and cowardly externally, feeding the great rivers and mountains to the surrounding animals one by one.

Yang Zheng was on the temporary wooden platform with a panoramic view of the entire battlefield. Du Yu was by his side, and the expression on his face was constantly changing, sometimes surprised, sometimes shocked, sometimes mumbling to himself.
The crowd was vast and boundless.
The slave army rushed forward crazily.
Ten thousand elite infantrymen, armed with swords and bows, were behind to supervise the battle.
The person who fled timidly was caught up by Qingqi in a blink of an eye, and his head was easily cut off.
As dusk fell, the city was already crumbling.
"Deng Ai must not die in the hands of our army!" Du Yu, who had stood for several hours, had a dry throat.
Yang Zheng couldn't help but smile bitterly, this had almost become Deng Ai's gold medal to avoid death.
However, the situation in Yongliang is exactly like this. Although we need to fight, we cannot completely break our skin.
Deng Ai is Sima Yi's face.
Yang Zheng nodded and said: "Ming Jin withdraws the troops."
It is already very obvious whether this city can be defended or not.
The slaves who had withdrawn were still in a state of excitement. Yang Zheng distributed the livestock from Yunwu City, and the slaves' exuberant energy slowly subsided.
Yang Zheng did not dare to be careless. He took back the weapons of the slaves and kept them under strict supervision. He divided them into three teams of 10,000 horsemen and patrolled them in turns to guard against any rebellion by the slaves.
In the middle of the night, there was a noise in the city, people were shouting and horses were neighing, and faint sounds of crying could be heard.
Yang Zheng thought that Deng Ai's army was preparing for a night attack and ordered the entire army to be on guard.
Unexpectedly, the city gate opened, and a group of young men knelt out of the city and prostrated by the moat. Dozens of white-haired old men stood tremblingly on the pile of corpses, with broken knives and spears beside them, pointing messily at the night sky.
The stars in the night sky are shining brightly, which is exceptionally beautiful and incompatible with the brutal killings in this world.
"The elders in Yuzhong have no intention of resisting the general. They are forced to do so by Deng Ai and his son. I hope General Yang will show mercy to the people in the city."
It turned out to be surrender, but this was not like Deng Ai's style.
Gong Feizhi led a few horses and galloped forward and asked sharply: "Where are Deng Ai and his son?"
"Deng Ai was injured, and Deng Zhongqing knew that he could not withstand the general's power, so he abandoned the city!"
Gong Feizhi whipped his riding whip three times and let out a sharp scream, "How long have you been walking?"
"After the siege was over, more than 4,000 people from Deng Ai and his son left in a hurry." The white-haired old men were extremely frightened.
Deng Ai could run away, but they couldn't.
The movement in front of the city gate made the slaves restless again.
They long to break the city, and they want to vent their anger after breaking the city.
This is almost a long-standing tradition in the Northwest.
Du Yu frowned quietly.
After being together for so long, Yang Zheng certainly knew what he was thinking, "Yuan Kai can bring three thousand soldiers of the personal guard battalion into the city to maintain order, but we must also be careful of the enemy's false surrender."
"Thank you, general!" The worry in Du Yu's brow disappeared, and he quietly entered the city with three thousand soldiers.
Yang Zheng also breathed a sigh of relief. If Deng Ai and his son continued to fight to the death, when the city was destroyed tomorrow, a disaster would be caused to the people in the city.
At this moment, Yang Zheng has completed the stage of primitive accumulation.
It’s time to erect a memorial arch.
Fame is sometimes a kind of power.
Under the suppression of the guard camp, the restlessness of the slaves finally calmed down.
Yang Zhengjia stayed up all night to prepare for all possible emergencies.
The lights in Yuzhong City were also brightly lit. At first there were screams and cries, then gradually calmed down, and then there were cheers of gratitude.
It was not until dawn that cartloads of freshly baked wheat cakes, broth, and spirits were delivered to the front of the army for distribution during the march, and the slaves were completely at peace.
Du Yu is indeed Du Yu, he is thoughtful and considerate.
All threats to Yuzhong City were lifted, and the people in the city knelt on the city wall and shouted in unison: "My parents are the ones who gave birth to me, and Yang Gong is the one who lives me!"
Yang Zheng was stunned, and then he realized that he was the "Mr. Yang" they called him.
As expected, this should have been done by Du Yu.
But Yang Zheng happily accepted it.
Every time one person survives this disaster, Yang Zheng's strength becomes stronger.
Just when he was immersed in the flattery, the scout Feng Chen servant came from the north, "Report to the general, the governor of Liangzhou is leading 20,000 Han and Yi troops to come to Jincheng County!"
"Chief Chen should have been here long ago!" Yang Zheng was not surprised.
Jincheng has been beaten for this reason, so it would be strange for Chen Tai not to come.
And he led the army to Jincheng instead of Xiping, which shows that he did not come to fight.
With this premise, everything will be easy to handle.
The affairs of Yuzhong City could be left to Du Yu, and Yang Zheng rushed north with 500 personal guards.
How will the chaos in Liangzhou end? First, it depends on Guo Huai, and second, Chen Tai!
Chen Tai's influence in the court was higher than that of Guo Huai.
Yingchuan Chen family is also a big tree in Cao Wei.
Yang Zheng became more and more aware of who could be hugged and who should never be trusted.
Zhang Te has led his troops to Lingju and is confronting Chen Taijun at Wuting against the river.
Although they are in a confrontation, neither side seems to be in a dangerous situation.
There are very few scouts.
Zhang Te was also confused, "Fighting but not fighting, retreating yet not retreating, I don't know what it means."
Yang Zheng, on the other hand, heard the elegant meaning of Xiange. Chen Tai was waiting for him to give him an explanation.
After all, Jincheng is under the rule of Liangzhou, so he can attack without authorization without saying hello.
"Chen Tai is waiting for me, so I have to go." Yang Zheng said with a smile.
Zhang Te was surprised, "How could this happen? The general is unusual now. If Chen Tai has malicious intentions..."
"Chen Tai is a gentleman and will not embarrass me. If I have my shortcomings, how can Liangzhou be so peaceful?" Yang Zheng's words are not alarmist. Without his own restraint, the Qiang and Hu soldiers and slaves under his command will surely cause huge waves.
But a gentleman can be deceived.
A gentleman understands righteousness more deeply.
Zhang Te was still worried, "If Chen Tai detains the general..."
Being able to say this shows that Zhang Te really cares about himself.
Because if he is detained by Chen Tai, the most direct beneficiary will be Zhang Te, the Sima who protects the Qiang.
"Zi Chan can rest assured. If Chen Tai wants to deal with us, why wait until now? Moreover, Chen Tai has always been fair and open-minded, and will not do such an outrageous thing. If I don't go, problems will really arise. For Xiping, for
You must take this risk!" Yang Zheng has made up his mind.
