After the Han army captured the south gate of Youzhou, the army poured into Youzhou City like a flood from the cracks in the dike. The Han army stormed street by street, and the remaining Khitan soldiers resisted street by street. The Han army entered the city at sunset, until
The battle continued in the early morning of the next day. Especially in the palace of the prince in the south courtyard of Youzhou, more than 1,300 Khitan people were stationed in the palace, stubbornly resisting the Han army's attack with strong bows and crossbows.
It wasn't until the early morning of the next day that the troops from Shenji Battalion entered the city and opened the gate of the Grand Prince's Palace in the south courtyard with artillery. After destroying a section of the city wall, the Han army swarmed in and started a fierce battle with the Khitans in the palace.
.
What I really didn’t expect was that the last Khitan people would be so tenacious. Until the last person died in the battle, no one surrendered. In order to conquer the palace, the Han army lost no less than 400 men despite having superior strength.
All the Khitans were annihilated. Almost every inch of the palace was stained red with blood, and you would see a corpse every time you took a step outside.
Almost the entire palace was destroyed, with rubble everywhere.
Liu Ling entered the city when the sun rose on the second day. When he learned about the tragic battle that took place in the Grand Prince's Mansion in the South Campus, he couldn't help but be moved. Even he couldn't imagine why the Khitans were so tenacious this time, and the Han people were so stubborn.
The army did not surround Youzhou City on all sides. It stands to reason that the defeated Khitan troops could withdraw from the north gate. Liu Ling forgot for a moment that Xiao Mingyuan ordered all four gates of Youzhou to be blocked. The defeated Khitan troops could not escape even if they wanted to.
.When people are faced with a desperate situation, they have no way out. No matter how timid they are, they will still fight like a cornered animal.
There was no way to move into the Grand Prince's Mansion in the South Campus, so Liu Ling temporarily moved into the Youzhou Mansion.
After ordering the soldiers to appease the people, reorganize the city defenses, and finally capture Youzhou, Liu Ling couldn't help but feel a little proud. This place really has so much special meaning.
After ordering the army to rest and recuperate, Liu Ling took only a few soldiers to walk through Youzhou City. The ruins of the city, the fire and smoke, and the desolation and chill after the war were revealed in the city. Fortunately, the residential buildings were not damaged.
Much, which made Liu Ling feel slightly less uncomfortable.
Occasionally, you can see rogues taking advantage of the war to commit mischief on the street. The brave ones even use Liu Ling's banner when committing crimes. They are said to be the internal spies that the King of Han has installed in Youzhou City a long time ago. They are under the command of the King of Han.
The decree confiscated people's property. Some people even insulted women in the street and robbed people of their money.
Liu Ling had given orders before, so the Han troops maintaining law and order would kill such ruffians directly without any courtesy. Hundreds of heads were chopped off, and the security on the streets gradually calmed down. Only in Youzhou.
Most of the people were Khitan people, and there were not many Khitan nobles, so every household closed their doors tightly, and no one dared to wander around at will.
Liu Ling led five or six guards around a street, wanting to go to the house in front of him. That place was called a wealthy street by the common people, and it was inhabited by Khitan nobles or Youzhou officials. Looking from a distance
In the past, the word wealth was very appropriate to describe a high-rise compound.
Almost every house of these Khitan nobles or officials has a lot of housekeepers. They are not afraid of the siege of those rogues even if they close their doors. Moreover, the Khitan people have a fierce temperament. If they are attacked severely by those rogues,
The guards in the courtyard would climb up the courtyard wall and use hard bows to fight back. Those ruffians who were usually sharp in fights would lose the courage to use swords and guns, so they had to choose ordinary people's homes to attack.
When Liu Ling and his guards turned around this street, they happened to see dozens of rogues not far away besieging a quite large house. However, the courtyard wall of that house was very high and the gate was strong enough.
The gangsters kicked and kicked in vain, but could not open the courtyard door. Some people stood at the door and cursed.
"Open the door quickly. I am a person sent by the King of Han. I want to check if there are any Khitan spies hiding in your home! If you don't open the door, your whole family will be labeled as traitors and they will be arrested together and taken to Caishikou to be beheaded! Do you hear that? Open quickly.
Courtyard gate!"
"Hurry up, I know that your family surnamed Han is a high official in the Khitan court. If you don't open the door, I will attack you! The King of Han said that if you catch a spy, you will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver. Harboring a Khitan rebel is the same crime as a rebel.
,Kill without mercy!”
A few gangsters found a log and were about to hit the courtyard door with it.
Liu Ling frowned, reined in the red lion, and stood thirty meters away from the ruffians. The guard behind him asked: "Your Majesty, do you want me to go over and capture those people?"
Liu Ling didn't answer and didn't seem to be angry.
Hearing the sound of horse hooves, the rogues turned around and looked at Liu Ling and others. They saw that although Liu Ling and others only had six or seven people, they were all dressed in brightly colored and angry horses, especially the man in brocade clothes in the middle, riding a fiery red horse.
The tall war horse looks even more extraordinary.
The gangsters are not without vision. When Liu Ling and others stopped, they felt the hostility of the other party. Now that Youzhou has been captured by the Han army, they know that the Khitan people do not dare to ride around on horseback, let alone the common people.
, it’s not safe to hide at home, who would run out to seek death? What’s more, the person who can have such a divine horse is definitely not an ordinary person.
It's just that those thugs who usually bully men and women also have a bit of hostility. Seeing that there are not many people like Liu Ling, they are not too scared. The leader of the thugs is a man in his thirties, and he looks at Liu Linggong from a distance.
He cupped his hands and said: "Guys, we are from the King of Han and are arresting Khitan spies. Please take a detour and don't ruin our official duties!"
These few sentences are so nondescript that people can’t help but laugh when they hear them.
The reason why Liu Ling hasn't ordered those rogues to be killed is actually very simple. Liu Ling is just.
.
.
.
.
.
.
He was just looking for a sense of his previous life. He remembered watching TV in his previous life. There were always a group of cute rogues in Beijing.
"Your Majesty?"
The guard called out tentatively.
Liu Ling hummed, and then slowly turned the red lion around and urged the horse to move slowly in the other direction. The guards did not understand what the prince meant, although they were completely confident that they could catch all the dozens of rogues.
They got off, but seeing that the prince had left, they had no choice but to follow. Although they wanted to teach those rogues a lesson, the prince's safety was more important. Several guards caught up with Liu Ling's horse and suddenly saw someone coming from the street.
On one side, seven or eight people in black robes turned around, each holding a black iron drill almost one meter long in their hands.
Someone from the Control Yuan?
Seeing those people wearing black lotus-style robes, the guards finally understood why the prince turned around and left. The prince just didn't want to be spoiled by those rogues, so how could he really let those bastards go?
The people from the Supervisory Yuan stood on the side of the road and bowed to Liu Ling. Liu Ling rode a red lion and passed by them slowly.
"Let Commander Zhao disperse all the people who come to the courtyard this time. Those who have done evil will be dealt with on the spot."
Liu Ling said lightly, but did not stop his horse.
"I obey my orders!"
The leading Overwatch Council official bowed in response, and then led the people towards the street where the gangsters were.
"Look at his majestic horse, I didn't expect him to be a coward!"
Seeing Liu Ling and others retreating, the gangsters burst out laughing.
"I thought I dared to fight with this man. I'm such a damn softie. I didn't even dare to say a word and was scared away by the boss. But speaking of which, boss, the title of King of Han is really good.
Use it."
A naughty man said flatteringly.
The man at the head scolded: "Shit! If I were born in the emperor's family, how could I be worse than Liu Ling, the king of Han? It's just that people's fate is destined. My father is a pig butcher, otherwise I can still achieve great things."
If you give me a hundred thousand soldiers, I can still beat the Khitans until they cry for their fathers!"
"Yes, yes, eldest brother is right, eldest brother's abilities are no worse than that of Liu Ling!"
"Can you fucking talk? What does it mean that the boss is no worse than Liu Ling, the king of Han Dynasty? If the boss was born in a noble family, he would have unified the world long ago. Also, didn't you kid always say that he is a Khitan tribesman? Why are you today?
Has it changed?"
"Fart! What did I say that I am a Khitan? I am a Han, a Han man!"
"Are you so cowardly? Stop talking nonsense. If the Khitans agree, how dare you say you are Han?"
The gangsters were cursing when they suddenly saw seven people in black robes turning from the street. The clothes of those people were very strange, and the black clothes looked very eye-catching. And each of those seven people had a gun in their hand.
He was holding a long, narrow and sharp black iron drill. He had a black robe and a black iron drill, which looked very cool.
The seven people came over in a swallow-tail shape. Black masks covered most of their faces, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.
"What are you doing! We are on official business under the orders of the King of Han. Get away!"
A rogue yelled, pulling his neck.
The man in black who was walking at the front seemed to smile coldly, his voice was very soft. But for some reason, when dozens of scoundrels saw these seven people approaching, everyone had a somewhat ominous premonition in their hearts.
A rogue raised the wooden stick in his hand and made a fierce gesture to embolden himself: "Get out of here, be careful, I will catch you and put you in jail, and I will kill you in the future!"
As the leader of the men in black walked, he slowly stretched out the iron drill and pointed it at the rogue's heart and said lightly: "Why bother? Who has time to wait until the autumn?"
Before he finished speaking, the black iron drill had already pierced into the heart of the naughty man who was holding the wooden stick. The last few words were said against the naughty ear. The black iron drill pierced the heart of the naughty boy.
It penetrated and came out from his back. The blood slowly dripped down the iron rod, and the thick blood pulled the long and thin blood threads.
"Killing people!"
One person was so frightened that he screamed, and his voice got stuck midway. An iron rod pierced his throat, and his subsequent words were forever bottled up in his stomach.
The black clothes dance gracefully, killing people with a flip of their hands.
Liu Ling rode forward slowly on his horse and suddenly gave an order: "Send someone to post a notice. All Khitans in Youzhou City must report to the Yamen for ten days. Those who fail to do so will be punished. Original
Those who are officials of sixth rank or above in Youzhou will be waiting at the government office early the day after tomorrow."
The soldiers responded and sent one of them back towards the government office.
What Liu Ling thought of as he walked was that he could no longer keep the palace of the South Courtyard King. It would cost a lot of money to rebuild a palace. If he wanted to raise funds, it would be faster to blackmail him.
