The two "bad things" that Fang Boshan and Yang Longting heard were the same news: the northern barbarian army left Toad Village alone, and the Rong prince led 80,000 troops and headed straight for Youzhou.
Attack Luoye City first. Luoye City was unguarded. They destroyed the city and massacred it for a day and a night.
They attacked Chisha City again and rushed the city with refugees. The defenders panicked and were rushed to the city gate by the Rong army. The city was breached and the lord of Chisha City fled through the small gate with his personal entourage.
Massacre the city.
They also attacked Tiehe City, but Tiehe City held firm and refused to fight. The Rong tribe left 20,000 people trapped in the city. They declared that those who surrendered would be spared death, and those who refused to surrender would massacre the city.
Sixty thousand soldiers were sent to attack Youzhou City. Yang Longting personally took command of the battle and lived and died with the soldiers. Their morale was greatly boosted. The Rong people knew they were outmatched and attacked Beizhen City.
The trebuchets broke through the city wall of Beizhen City, and the soldiers fought tooth and nail to repair the wall at the critical moment.
Talking about Qingzhou Mu Eternal Style, after inquiring and finding out that the bandits in Toad Village had blocked the Rong tribe for two months, they realized that the Rong tribe was just mediocre. Under the guise of driving away the barbarians and saving the common people, they led a mighty 50,000-strong army into Youzhou.
.
Encountered with the Rong tribe, under the charge of the Rong tribe's cavalry, Wan Gufeng's army was scattered in a few rounds, causing countless casualties. Wan Gufeng was trapped in Changfeng Valley with 10,000 remaining soldiers.
The Rong tribe surrounded but refused to kill him. After knowing the news that their father was trapped, Wan Gufeng's sons led a large army to help, but they were completely vulnerable to the Rong tribe's iron cavalry.
The standard encirclement and reinforcement tactics ended up wiping out at least 100,000 Qingzhou soldiers. Wan Gufeng risked his life to break out of the encirclement and fled back to Qingzhou in embarrassment with the defeated soldiers.
At this time, the trapped Tiehe City knew that it was outnumbered, and the city lord went out to surrender. He only asked the Rong tribe not to harm the people in the city. The Rong tribe entered the city in a big way.
Massacre the city.
The Rong tribe's 80,000-strong army marched rampantly in Youzhou territory for a month, which was exactly what Cheng Dalei guessed: the people were in ruins, and the corpses were everywhere.
Youzhou's population of three to five million has dropped by half. Except for Youzhou and Beizhen, which were not destroyed, the other three cities suffered a bloodbath from the Rong tribe.
The residents in the city at least have some hope, but the people outside the city don't even have half a hope. The Rong cavalry is rampant on the land of the empire, taking pleasure in shooting the people. Seeing them running for their lives in embarrassment, they sit on their horses and laugh loudly.
laugh.
This battle should have made the empire understand that the Rong tribe is not invincible. Needless to say, Youzhou City is strong. Rubei Zhen City is just a small city, but it also held firm under the strong attack of the Rong tribe. In the field battle, it is true that the empire has no peace with the Rong tribe.
The Rong tribe is not good at attacking cities, but the Rong tribe is not good at it.
As long as the soldiers are united and willing to destroy the cauldron, the Rong tribe has no better way to break the city than to besiege it.
However, years of failure have already caused too many people to develop Rong phobia, and they have become like birds and beasts before the Rong clan comes.
Under Youzhou City, refugees are like ants.
"Let me in, let me in, please, let me in!"
Countless people crowded under the city wall. They were all civilians who had fled from all over the country. Their homes had been destroyed and they were homeless. Now Youzhou City was their only hope. At this time, some people were wailing, some were crying, and some were using their hands and feet to pray.
Climbing the city wall.
"kill!"
Yang Longting spit out one word clearly and neatly. The so-called kindness cannot lead soldiers, and righteousness cannot lead justice. There may not be Rong tribe among these people. Once they are mixed into the city, they should cooperate inside and outside, and Youzhou City will definitely be slaughtered with blood. Yang Long
Ting is a veteran who has been in the army for half his life. He knows that soldiers only value results and lives are just numbers. He never interacts too much with lower-level soldiers, because as long as they are human, they must have feelings. Once you have feelings with them, you will not
Don't have the heart to send them to death.
Yang Longting also knew the mood of the refugees in the city, and he couldn't bear to see them die miserably.
So he chose not to look.
Arrows were shot down like rain, and some people died under the bows and arrows, without even having time to scream before they died. Some people charged against the rain of arrows, while others had no choice but to leave the city wall.
"You are such noble people, you are so high up, you don't dare to kill the Rong clan, but you only dare to shoot arrows at us, you... will be punished by heaven."
Beizhen City is another scene.
It was another duel between attacking and defending the city. The city lord Bai Shayu had been awake all day and night. Every brick and every person in the city was played by him. He ate and lived on the city wall and slept with the soldiers.
war.
"I am the lord of Beizhen City, and the land I guard is beneath my feet. I am here in the city, and I swear to live and die with this city."
"kill!"
The tired soldiers let out a muffled roar, and the rolling logs, stones, gold soup and other objects that had been prepared were thrown down at the attacking Rong tribe below the city.
The Rong tribe is difficult to defeat.
However, Beizhen City was just a small accident. For the Rong clan, the recent battlefield was still going smoothly.
The city has been destroyed and massacred one after another. Wherever the iron hooves go, killing people is like cutting grass. In recent days, many people have no time to dry the blood on their swords, and they just keep killing, killing, killing.
The long-term grievances they had suffered in Qingniu Mountain were instantly wiped away, and they returned to their familiar territory. The long swords pointed at them, killing people everywhere, and the iron hooves were everywhere, and they fled in the wind. They were sons and sons blessed by the eternal god, and they were born with horseback.
The warriors above want to prove to the world that the Rong cavalry is unparalleled in the world. It is not a lie.
That annoying Cheng Dalei.
Compared with Cheng Dalei, these forces are like well-behaved rabbits.
After a month of burning, killing and looting, the Rong people left Beizhen and Youzhou alone and led the army to attack Qingniu Mountain.
Now, it's time to take care of that pesky toad.
…
Toad Village.
Cheng Dalei finally built the first mountain ladder, and with the help of ropes, he and the village leaders climbed up the mountain first.
Looking down from the top, he could see everything in the valley. Cheng Dalei was suddenly startled and remembered something.
"XXX" Cheng Dalei was stunned for a while and cursed loudly: "Damn it, I finally understand why they are clinging to me."
A long time ago, Cheng Dalei got a treasure map from Huang Sanyuan. It is said that this treasure map was from when the Rong tribe invaded the empire thirty years ago and they had no time to take away the looted property, so they buried it on the spot.
However, the Rong people don't even have written characters, so the treasure map is particularly crude. It is almost impossible to find the treasure location according to the map.
Cheng Dalei didn't take this matter to heart at all, but at this moment, looking down from Cheng Dalei's position, it was exactly the same as what was depicted on the map.
Thirty years ago, the Rong people looted the empire, and it was unimaginable how much gold, silver and jewels they robbed. But these treasures are now in the valley, and even Cheng Dalei can directly confirm their location.
Originally he was very excited when he thought about this huge mileage, but he was stunned for a while and sighed softly.
"It's a pity that I didn't have time to take them out this time."
