At the foot of Taiyuan City, Mo Jingyu led his troops to attack the city.
Eight thousand standing troops and more than ten thousand civilians and warriors attacked the city with only five hundred defenders. Unexpectedly, the city gate was opened, but there was an internal response in the city.
Taiyuan is an important military town in North Vietnam. The Mo family attacked here many times, but only succeeded twice. One of them,
He went straight to Thang Long, the capital of Annan, but was quickly killed back in the ravine by the Zheng family...
This time, in order to deal with the Datong Army, Zheng Pang took away the Taiyuan defenders, immediately giving Mo Jingyu a chance.
The Taiyuan commander-in-chief died in battle, and the deputy commander-in-chief Pan Chunzhi was the younger brother of Pan Chunfu, the man who slaughtered pigs and sheep to welcome the king's division.
Mo Jingyu seized the city with the help of Neiying and personally interrogated Pan Chunzhi: "Why are there only a few hundred Taiyuan defenders left?
"Bah! Dog thief!"
Pan Chunzhi spat over it.
This is not because Pan Chunzhi is very staunch. If he were captured by the Datong Army, he would probably surrender.
But Mo Jingyu was different. The Mo regime represented the interests of the Vietnamese gentry.
As for Phua Chun Zhi, he was born into a wealthy family, that is, Thanh Hoa and the Nghe An gentry group.
The two major gentry groups have been in conflict for many years. If one group gains power, it will inevitably suppress the other group, and there is almost no possibility of compromise.
If we use religion as a metaphor, for Pan Chunzhi, the foreign Datong Army is a heretic, while Mo Jingyu is a heretic. He can cooperate with the heretics, but he can never give the heretics a good look!
Mo Jingyu was spit on his face, and he became angry. He drew his sword and chopped Pan Chunzhi, and asked: "Who knows what happened to Shenglong Mansion? If no one answers, I will kill five of them with a stick of incense until I Kill until you finish!"
After watching most of the incense sticks, a captured official finally said: "Han soldiers attacked Thanh Hoa from the sea.
Your Highness...the Zheng family has sent troops to fight the Han army."
"The Han army sent troops to Qinghua?"
Mo Jingyu was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed loudly: "God is helping me! This Zheng family thief will die if he does many unjust things. He dared to swallow up the Mu Family Village, and he really thought he could hide it from the Chinese Emperor. ?Empty the Taiyuan treasury and follow me to kill Shenglong Mansion!"
Mujiaxun Village, which was swallowed up by Annan, is right next door to Mo Jingyu's site.
Before the decisive battle between Zheng Pang and Li Dingguo, Mo Jingyu broke through Taiyuan City and went straight to Shenglong Mansion, the capital of Annan.
Instead of encountering resistance along the way, more and more soldiers were fighting. A large number of northern gentry took the initiative to recruit local warriors.
Fight with Mo Jingyu.
These northern gentry were severely oppressed by the southern gentry, and they were always looking forward to killing the Mo family. The northern farmers, who were also exploited on weekdays, simply rebelled with the landlords.
When Mo Jingyu arrived at Shenglong Mansion, his strength had grown to 30,000!
Mo Jingyu issued a message on the way. The slogan was: expel the false king, slaughter all the Mo clan, revive the Li Dynasty, and treat the gentry well. Of course, he only treated the gentry in the north, including the gentry around Thang Long Palace.
The gentry of Thang Long House had the worst life.
Because they were located around the capital, the Zheng family rewarded them with land and often enclosed it here. Officials from the southern gentry also liked to buy land near the capital, and the land area occupied by northern landlords continued to shrink.
On the second day after Mo Jingyu besieged Shenglong Mansion, the local gentry also came to help. You have dozens, I have a hundred, all with their own country warriors.
The officials in the city of Thang Long were already anxious. Zheng Pang had emptied the national treasury of food, and there were not many troops left to defend the city. They could only organize officials and civilians to defend the city.
"Empress, go quickly!"
Li Fan knew Zheng Rongfu and rushed into the palace with his servants, anxiously looking for the Empress Dowager Zheng Yuzhu.
Zheng Yuzhu asked: "Can't you keep it?"
"Without soldiers in the city, how can we hold it?" Zheng Rongfu said anxiously, "When the rebels fill up the moat, Shenglong Mansion will inevitably fall. If we don't leave, it will be too late!"
Zheng Yuzhu immediately asked the palace maid to pack up her belongings, pack her bags and get on the boat, planning to take a boat overnight to find Zheng Pang.
There was too much commotion in the palace, and the ships on the pier were also commandeered. How could it be hidden from the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty?
The Empress Dowager was about to run away, so naturally they did not dare to stay, so the drama of robbing the ship quickly unfolded.
Even Mo Jingyu outside the moat was alerted. He sent people to the lower reaches of the Red River in advance to intercept a large number of nobles and officials who fled after nightfall.
The same scene happened decades ago. It was the Mo family who took advantage of the situation and fought their way back to Shenglong Mansion. The noble officials in the city scrambled to escape, and all those who could not escape were killed by the Mo family.
At night, six or seven miles downstream of the Red River.
The fleeing fleet headed by the Empress Dowager Zheng Yuzhu arrived here with gold and silver treasures. Suddenly, the ambush troops on both sides of the river came out and fired arrows towards the river.
Immediately afterwards, lights also lit up in the river.
Mo's troops set up small boats, some even riding bamboo rafts, and rowed over to surround the fleeing fleet.
"Kill all the men without leaving a single one alive!"
Mo Jingyu's son was named Mo Jingrui. Historically, he joined the Manchus and changed his name to Mo Yuanqing.
This guy is only more than ten years old and is responsible for leading the troops to intercept and kill.
Moreover, he was very murderous and wanted to kill all the southern gentry. If these southern gentry had not rebelled, his Mo family would still be ruling the entire Annan, and the territory of both the Zheng family and the Ruan family would belong to his Mo family.
In the early morning, all the goods on the ship were seized by Mo Jingrui, and the female dependents of the gentry and nobles were escorted ashore one by one.
Mo Jingrui asked: "Is the puppet Li Emperor's concubine here?"
"Your Highness, those are the concubines of the false emperor." said the general under his command, pointing to more than fifty women.
Mo Jingrui asked in confusion: "Why are there still older people?"
The general explained: "The concubines of the two false emperors are here."
Mo Jingrui thought for a while and said with a smile: "If you don't want the old ones, give them to the soldiers. If you want the young ones, take them back to Shenglong Mansion!"
In fact, they are not particularly old. The oldest concubine of Emperor Li Shenzong is only in her fifties, and the youngest is only in her twenties.
Mo Jingrui boarded the boat that Zheng Yuzhu was on. There was blood everywhere on the boat. It took a while to clean it but it was not clean.
This guy didn't mind it either, so he ordered the fleet to return to Thang Long Palace, and he carried Li Zhenzong's queen into the cabin. As for his generals, they also followed the same example, each assigned Li Shenzong's concubine, and couldn't wait to play with each other on other ships. Age
It doesn't matter if they are older, these are the women of Emperor Li, and their unattainable status is enough to excite them.
Even Zheng Yuzhu, who was almost fifty years old, was dragged into the cabin by an officer.
The Mo family's regime was not a good thing either. Although it was hiding in the ravine, it was always extravagant and extravagant. It had to raise troops, build palaces, and even overhaul temples. Almost every ten years, the people would rebel.
While Mo Jingrui was sleeping with the queen in the cabin, his father Mo Jingyu had already captured Shenglong Mansion.
The officials and nobles have all fled, so why are the soldiers still guarding the city?
Mo Jingyu rode his war horse through the doorway and ordered the people around him: "This capital belongs to us and no looting is allowed. Except for the southerners (southern gentry), as long as they speak with a southern accent, all the males will be killed and the females will be rewarded."
Soldier!"
With this order, everything went into chaos.
These soldiers were like bandits. At first, they even distinguished their accents carefully. They were killing each other. No matter where you were from, they rushed in when they saw a big house.
He was even afraid that someone would sue him afterwards. While robbing the property, he also killed everyone in the house, leaving only the beautiful young women alive.
The entire Shenglong Mansion was killed like hell.
"Boom boom boom!"
In the direction of Lang Son, the Datong Army was shelling Guancheng.
During the Zhu Di period, Zhang Fu led his troops to conquer Annan, all following this path.
The first expedition was when the prince of the Chen Dynasty of Annan State came to China to join the imperial court. The Li family pretended to invite him to return to his country for restoration, and Zhu Di sent 5,000 soldiers to escort him. Unexpectedly, the Li family was so bold that he ambushed the Ming army and not only killed Chen Chao
The prince also killed the deputy envoy of the Ming Dynasty to Annan (the retired Minister of Dali Temple).
In less than a month, Zhang Fu cleared the Vietnam checkpoint and reached the Taiping River in two months. He had already penetrated Thang Long Mansion. Annan's monarchs and ministers abandoned the capital and fled. They did not even dare to take the land route and fled to the sea.
Give up.
Annan Kingdom thus became Jiaozhi Province. From the war to the destruction of the country, it took about more than two months.
Moreover, Zhennan Pass was in the hands of Annan at that time and was called Jiling Pass. Before Jiling Pass, Zhang Fu also attacked Aiyi Pass. The attack on these two great passes was also counted in those two months.
The remaining three expeditions were all to quell the Jiaozhi rebellion.
At this moment, Liu Xinyu and Ding Jiasheng had also broken through two passes, both of which were built after the restoration of Annan.
Lang Son City was the third level they attacked.
Just when the defenders were about to be unable to withstand the bombardment, a fast horse came from the south. When they entered Guancheng, they shouted: "Mo family sent troops to seize Shenglong Mansion!"
The defenders were shocked.
The deputy general of Lang Son has already blocked the ball in the previous pass, w. At this moment, the general of Lang Son, Tao Zhongren, is defending.
Tao Zhongren grabbed the messenger by the collar and asked, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
The messenger said with a tearful tone: "The Mo family has really sent out troops, and Shenglong Mansion has fallen."
Tao Zhongren was stunned on the spot. Suddenly the sound of artillery sounded again. He woke up and gritted his teeth and said: "Kaicheng surrenders.
Welcome the heavenly soldiers!"
Soon, the city gate opened.
Liu Xinyu didn't believe it and said: "The enemy troops in the two previous Guancheng cities were very stubborn. Even the deputy commander-in-chief fought to death. Why did they suddenly surrender?"
Ding Jiasheng said: "Either something happened in the enemy's rear, or the general of Lang Son is greedy for life and afraid of death."
While these two men were still talking, Tao Zhongren had already taken off his armor, led his troops out of the city and knelt outside, and at the same time sent someone to invite the Datong army to enter the city.
Liu Xinyu came with his troops and asked, "Why did you surrender suddenly?"
Tao Zhongren said: "The rebel Mo family has captured Shenglong Mansion and will surely kill countless people. General, please send troops quickly to rescue the people.
"Mo's family?" Ding Jiasheng also came over, "This guy is well-informed, and he actually took advantage of the situation and captured Shenglong Mansion.
This man governs the people cruelly. In recent years, many Yue people have fled over the mountains and ridges to Guangxi in search of life. If he captures Shenglong Mansion, I am afraid he will really plunder the city."
Along the way to the Guangxi Datong Army, the enemy suddenly changed. Mo Jingyu would not hand over Shenglong Mansion easily, and there would definitely be a fight when the time came.
