Chapter 1,212: Taking the royal city at night and making Yu Shu a slave

It's the tenth day of the first lunar month, just after Mao hour.

There is no Spring Festival atmosphere at all in Linhe County.

Two thousand five hundred soldiers stood in front of the county government office, facing each other, inspecting each other's leggings, waist knives, crossbows and other armor and weapons.

Su Mingzhe also completed donning the armor under the inspection of Cao Wushang and Zhou Bo.

Not long after.

Zhao Wu came running with a team of men and horses, arrived at the yamen gate, jumped off the horse neatly, knelt down and said:

"General, everyone in the city has been sent to the county seat, and now Linhe County is empty!"

Su Mingzhe frowned:

"Has there been any reply from General Meng?"

Zhou Bo's detective received the news that Tu'an City would invade south again.

Su Mingzhe took the opportunity to report that he had few soldiers and was unable to defend the city. He requested that he be allowed to go out of the city to attack the enemy. He also issued a military order stating that he could capture at least 5,000 enemy soldiers.

Zhao Wu replied:

"General Meng said 'yes'!"

"Return to the team!"

When Su Mingzhe received the order, his brows suddenly lit up with joy.

Immediately, holding the sword in his left hand, he took two steps forward, looked at each other silently with all the soldiers, and without saying any unnecessary words, he just waved his hand:

"Get on your horse and let's go!"

At the same time, three hundred years away in Xian City, Lord Tuan was sending off his eldest son Hukam.

Hukam was in his thirties and in his prime. He raised his head and drank the farewell wine. He then roared and rode a black horse, galloping southward.

It was different from Su Mingzhe who only led 2,500 people, sparsely.

There are more than 20,000 people behind Hukam, which are all the young and strong warriors in Xian City.

In addition to the 20,000 people behind him, the other four cities of Tu'an also came out in full force, with a total of more than 50,000 people heading south to the Great Wall.

Walk, walk, walk.

An eagle flew over the grassland for an unknown length of time, circling for a while, seemingly looking for its target.

Then a sharp and ear-piercing scream sounded.

Su Mingzhe, who was more than ten years away, heard it and responded with a long roar.

The eagle chirped again and then slowly left.

When the eagle went away, Su Mingzhe was thoughtful, and his eyes showed a bit of sparkle:

"The Lord Tu'an is so arrogant that he staged an empty city plan. Isn't this a God-given opportunity?"

"The whole army obeys the order and speeds up. Today, before the sun sets, we will cross Yinshan Mountain!"

Yinshan Mountain is just north of Yunzhong County, and the straight-line distance is only seventy or eighty miles away.

The five cities of Tuan Kingdom are all located in the north of Yinshan Mountain.

More than 2,000 people crossed directly over Yinshan Mountain, saving more than 100 miles of walking.

When everyone stood at the highest point of Yinshan Mountain and looked to the north, we could vaguely see a few small black spots in the vast sky.

"Master, that direction is Xi'an City!"

Zhou Bo pointed a direction to Su Mingzhe and explained:

"Even though we can see it now, Xi'an City is actually at least a hundred years away from here!"

"More than a hundred, we can get there in one day!"

Su Mingzhe knew that Tu'an was now an undefended city, so he immediately ordered:

"Send the order, everyone will rest here tonight and set off early tomorrow morning!"

"Here!"

The teams are taking orders and immediately go down to make arrangements.

Turning around, the wind blows with white snow, and the sky and the earth are vast.

Zhou Bo, Zhao Wu and others looked at the heavy snow flying in the sky, and they all wanted to persuade Su Mingzhe to rest for a day and attack Xi'an tomorrow.

Unexpectedly, Su Mingzhe burst out laughing:

"Brothers, God is helping us! With such a heavy snowstorm covering our whereabouts, the Tuan people would never guess that we would sneak attack on them today!"

Upon hearing this, everyone felt that it made sense, and their original fear of traveling in the snow dissipated instantly.

However, although everyone no longer feels afraid, it is too easy to lose direction when rushing in the wind and snow.

That is to say, Su Mingzhe's firm eyes and leading everyone forward in the snow prevented everyone from breaking down.

It was just late in the afternoon.

The shadow of a city gradually appeared on the horizon.

"Brothers, Tu'an is right in front of you. The opportunity to build a career and marry a wife is right now. Go ahead!"

"Come on!"

After two days of driving with their heads down, everyone finally arrived at the end of the field. No longer thinking about the extra time, they pulled out the swords at their waists and followed Su Mingzhe towards the city.

All the young men in Xi'an City were taken away by the eldest prince Hukam to attack the Great Wall, and the rest were old, weak, women and children.

The leader of the Tu'an Kingdom did not expect that the Qin people would brave the wind and snow to sneak attack on him, so he did not arrange any defense at all.

Su Mingzhe took the lead, climbed to the top of the city, and opened the city gate from the side.

This city with more than 80,000 people was destined to become Su Mingzhe's bag.

Su Mingzhe took the lead, leading five hundred troops, rushed into the palace, killed the resisting guards, and came to the Lord Tu'an who was still drinking and having fun.

The leader of Tu'an was already old. When he saw the Qin people who seemed to be falling from the sky, his face turned pale and he couldn't get up from the ground after trying several times.

When Su Mingzhe drew his sword and pointed it at the old man, Lord Tuan could only throw away the long sword studded with gems in his hand and declared his surrender.

Su Mingzhe has rich experience in collecting grassland prisoners.

After informing the outside world that the leader of Tu'an had been captured, he asked the people not to resist anymore.

When the sound of fighting gradually ended, Su Mingzhe ordered all the men in the city who were taller than a wheel to gather together, tie their hands and feet, and then ordered sharp men to guard them with crossbows.

Control the men, and then deal with the women and children.

Among them, women with children were imprisoned together, and women without children were imprisoned together.

In the end, there are a group of old and weak people left, so kill them directly.

In addition, there are a group of Qin people captured by the Tu'an people in Xi'an City.

There were approximately fifteen thousand captured Qin people, both men and women, all young and strong.

Su Mingzhe selected some of the captured Qin people who were capable and willing to help the Qin army, and asked them to help the Qin army suppress and guard the prisoners.

The remaining elite soldiers of the Qin army began to sweep away the city like autumn leaves sweeping away fallen leaves.

We were so busy until the afternoon of the second day.

Zhao Wu led six people holding dozens of bamboo slips to the main meeting hall of Tu'an. When he saw his general holding two crying beauties enjoying themselves, he did not dare to look up, but lowered his head to report:

"Report to the general that all gold and silverware has been registered!"

After hearing this, Su Mingzhe just waved his hand and said:

"According to the laws of the Qin Dynasty, two-thirds of all items should be handed over. Of the remaining one-third, half should be handed over to General Meng. Of the last one-sixth, I should take half, and everyone should equally share one-twelfth. !」

"Here!"

Zhao Wu saw that Su Mingzhe had no intention of hiding anything, so he handed over the bamboo slips and left.

In the main hall, Su Mingzhe and the two Princess Tu'an were left again.

The most beautiful princess in Tuan is naturally Princess Yushu.

However, Princess Yushu’s sister, Princess Yurong, is not bad either.

After a strenuous fight, Su Mingzhe successfully completed his first emotional exchange with the two women.

One day passed.

The snowstorm that lasted for two days finally stopped.

The army loaded all the harvest onto horses and oxcarts, and then began to rush towards Yunzhong County.

On the way back, because we were not in a hurry, everyone took our time.

By the time everyone rushed back to Linhe County, it was already five days later.

At this time, the 50,000-strong army led by Prince Hukam of Tu'an was intercepted outside the Great Wall by General Meng Tian. When he learned the news that Xi'an City had been breached, he was frightened.

The emperor fled.

Meng Tian took the opportunity to lead his army to cover up and kill more than 8,000 people.

Everyone returned to the city.

When Su Mingzhe handed over the prisoners, he suddenly asked to make the two princesses Yu Shu and Yu Rong his official slaves.

Meng Tian didn't care at all about this and directly approved it.

In his eyes, those two princesses were just the daughters of Chief Rongdi, barbarians, and they were rewarded as much as they could be rewarded.

After Su Mingzhe thanked him, he handed over the seized items that he had divided.

Meng Tian didn't care about these seizures. He only cared about the leader of Tu'an.

When the official business was over, Meng Tian held a banquet and rewarded the three armies with rewards.
