Luo Zhang led his bodyguards and charged in. The ground was full of corpses. The undead ones were rolling on the ground and wailing. On the city wall, soldiers were chasing after them. Crossbow arrows were raining down, and the Turkic defenders retreated wildly.
Shouts of killing echoed throughout the city.
A team member hurriedly rode forward, clasped his fists and said: "General, the two division commanders Zhega and Liu Wei have already entered. The enemy has been defeated, but..."
"Just what, say!" Luo Zhang asked coldly.
"General, please come and take a look with your subordinates." The other party didn't know how to say it, his face was ashen.
"Lead the way!" Luo Zhang realized something had happened and followed him.
The personal guards followed closely, alert to the surroundings.
Soon, the group came to an open area. There was a huge pit in front of it. Someone was on guard. Luo Zhang could smell the smell of blood from a distance. His face changed drastically. He shook the reins and rode up.
The pit was filled with corpses. They died in a tragic manner. Many people had their eyes wide open and their faces were ferocious. It was obvious how unwilling and angry they were before they died. Judging from their clothes, they were all local people.
A burst of anger suddenly emerged from the bottom of my heart and went straight to the top of my head. This is - a mass grave?!
"brute!"
Luo Zhang roared angrily, his hand holding Ma Shan's hands rattled, murderous intent erupted, his eyes instantly turned red, and shouted: "Send the order, no prisoners, no one will be spared, I want to seek justice for the people who died tragically!"
"Obey the order!" Someone immediately roared angrily and rode off to deliver the order.
Those who kill will always be killed!
Since these Tubo people are acting like animals, let’s kill them all.
Luo Zhang's heart surged with murderous intent. He looked at the pit coldly and gradually realized something was wrong. There were only old people and mixed men and women in the pit, but there were no young people, children or women. Could it be that:
Thinking of some possibility, Luo Zhang pulled the reins and shouted: "Follow me."
The guards quickly followed, and Luo Zhangmeng rushed forward along the main road, running in the direction of the shouts of killing. Soon they saw Liu Wei and his men shooting at the enemy troops. The crossbow arrows roared and were dense like rain. Although Tubo raised
The shield was in front, but many people still fell.
"rush ahead!"
The murderous intention in Luo Zhang's heart could not be suppressed, so he roared up with his bodyguards.
The war horse was channeled, its hooves were flying, and it quickly rushed forward, knocking away the shield in front of it, creating a gap and continuing to move forward. Luo Zhang was stabbed by the horse again and again, with murderous intent filling the sky.
The guards rushed up following the gap, their swords flying, and they slashed hard.
When Liu Wei saw Luo Zhang charging forward, he gave an order and led his men to rush in through the gap, like wolves and tigers.
Soon, Luo Zhang rushed to a Tibetan general, and his horse swept left and right, flying away the two people who came to stop him. Taking advantage of the horse's strength, he stabbed with all his strength, like a bolt of lightning.
The opponent was startled by the ferocious momentum and speed, and quickly dodged sideways and raised his weapon to fight back, but Luo Zhang was faster, and his stabbing turned into a whip, and he knocked the opponent off his horse with a sweep.
As the war horse stepped forward, Luo Zhang stretched out his horse's arm, picked up the man with skillful force, threw him to a guard next to him and shouted: "Tie the man up, don't let him die."
"Follow the order!" the other party responded loudly.
The horse in Luo Zhang's hand shook, and he charged forward again, stabbing left and right, flying up and down, like a precision human-shaped meat grinder, crushing him all the way up.
The soldiers were stimulated by Luo Zhang's bravery, and they all screamed and chased and slashed fiercely.
Soon, the soldiers submerged all the enemies. Luo Zhang pulled the horse's head and told Liu Wei: "Kill them, leave no one behind, and fight quickly."
"Follow the order!" Liu Wei led his men and continued to pursue him.
Luo Zhang came to the bodyguard who had kidnapped the man and motioned for him to be thrown to the ground.
The other party woke up from the pain and roared: "Tang Gou, kill me if you dare."
It was easy to communicate. Luo Zhang narrowed his eyes and stabbed the opponent with a horse spear, piercing one of the opponent's arms and nailing him to the ground.
"Ah!" The other party screamed, and his face turned pale instantly.
Luo Zhang took out his horse and said coldly: "Either I answer the question and give you a good time, or I am trampled to death by a random horse."
"What do you want to do?" The other party felt inexplicably panicked when he saw Luo Zhang's sharp eyes.
"Where are the young men and women in the city?"
The other party hesitated and said nothing.
Luo Zhang confirmed his guess, but still stared at the other person and asked: "Are they all beaten into slaves and taken to Tibet? He said-"
"So what? The second prince will definitely not let you go." The other party said with a pinched neck.
"Second Prince, what about Qinling?" Luo Zhang stared at the other person and asked.
"It's good if you know. The second prince is invincible and will definitely avenge me. If you dare, kill me."
"very good--"
Luo Zhang was so angry that he clenched his teeth and said coldly: "As long as you know it was him, I will settle this debt with him personally and bring his head here to pay homage to the dead souls in the city. Someone -"
"exist!"
"Hang him up and hang him on the city gate until he dies." Luo Zhang ordered murderously.
The guards agreed and took the person away.
"Send the order, pull all the Tibetan people outside the city to see through it, build a view of the capital with their heads, and throw the corpses into the wilderness to feed the wolves. Tell the King of Han that Jincheng County has been captured." Luo Zhang continued the order, holding back his anger and feeling extremely uncomfortable.
Innocent people throughout the city were massacred or taken away as slaves. This was a shame for the military.
Unfortunately, too much time has passed and everyone has gone to Tubo, making it difficult to recover. This debt can only be settled later.
…
Almost at the same time, Xiping County.
In a city located by the Datong River, not far from Jincheng County, the earthen city wall had been blown open, and a large number of Hanzhou troops rushed in. There were only three thousand Tuyuhun defenders in the city, and they could not stop it at all, so they quickly surrendered.
Qin Huaidao was three miles away from the city and had no intention of entering the city. He calmly watched the army attack, but his mind was filled with the topographic map of Tuyuhun and he was thinking about his next move.
Not far away, Xue Wanche and Xu Shiji looked at the collapsed earth city wall with shocked faces. Although the wall was not high, it was a city wall after all. In their understanding, such a city was difficult to conquer, and they could only climb it through ladders.
Climbing up and opening it from the inside, there was a loud bang and everything collapsed.
At this moment, the two men suddenly realized that they were out of date and the way of war was changing.
Thinking of the earth-shattering noise and the sudden collapse of the earth city wall, the two couldn't help but look at each other. They immediately looked at Qin Huaidao, only to find that Qin Huaidao's face was calm and unfazed, as if everything was calculated. The two couldn't help it again.
They exchanged glances and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
"With that explosive thing, all the cities in the world were in vain. Today, things have changed!" Xu Shiji couldn't help but sigh. After all, he was not inferior to Li Jing's master of military art and his unique vision.
Xue Wanche nodded and sighed: "We generals will have no advantage in the future. A small soldier can easily kill him with that terrible explosive. The battle will change in the future. Fortunately, you and I surrendered to the King of Han. If we were enemies, it would be a nightmare for the soldiers in their lives."
"
Xu Shiji nodded in agreement, thinking about changing his meritorious service to occupy a place in the Han Dynasty palace, so he stepped forward, clasped his fists and said: "Han Wang, I think that with this explosive thing in hand, I can divide my troops and attack Xining all the way. I will succeed."
Then they made a sneak attack on Fuai City, then marched to Tuyuhun King's City, and attacked Hezhou on the other side."
Qin Huaidao also had this idea. Not only did the Tuyuhun King's city have a large amount of grain and grass, but there were also Tuyuhun nobles, wealthy families, hostages, and grain and grass in hand. He had control over the entire Tuyuhun lifeline. He asked, "If you lead the army, how many troops and horses will be needed?"
How sure are you?"
"If there is something explosive, an army of soldiers and horses is enough." Xu Shiji said confidently.
"Cheng Chumo!"
"Here!" Cheng Chumo stepped forward.
Qin Huaidao solemnly ordered: "From now on, General Xu is the marshal of the Tuyuhun campaign and is fully responsible for the campaign against Tuyuhun. You will lead the army to assist without any mistakes."
"Follow the order!" Cheng Chumo did not object. Xu Shiji had already heard about his great military exploits.
When Xu Shiji heard about the appointment, he was overjoyed. He could still be fully responsible for the campaign. What kind of trust and trust it was. He solemnly clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, King Han, for your trust. I will definitely capture Tuyuhun. I have repaid the trust."
"You are solely responsible for how you beat me. I won't ask, but there is one thing."
"Please tell me, King Han!"
Qin Huaidao solemnly warned: "Capture more prisoners and provide food and grass. The development of Hanzhou requires a population."
"You will finally understand." Xu Shiji clasped his fists again.
Qin Huaidao saw the eager-looking Xue Wanche. It would be of little use to bring such a fierce general to Chang'an. He would miss the old relationship with Li Er and couldn't let go, so he might as well stay. He had an idea and shouted: "General Xue."
