Chapter 1895 Sporadic resistance, old acquaintance who came to ask for death
"I hate the thieves of the Xiaotang Dynasty, who rebelled against the law, incited the people, and brought disaster to the country..."
Qiu was chanting angrily, but his words suddenly stopped. Ask yourself, Xiao Tang betrayed the imperial court, and now he is aggressively invading prefectures and plundering counties. Of course, scolding him for committing a major crime that harmed the country is not unjust, but if it is said to be a disaster for the people.
.....
Seeing the Qi Dynasty troops and horses rushing into the city from a distance, they saw the people in the city approaching the government office. However, Qiu Cui felt as if his heart had been hit hard by a sledgehammer, and he was suddenly suffocated.
Blocked and frustrated.
It is the duty to defend the territory. Even if you fight to the last moment, the city will inevitably fall. It is just that the city is destroyed and people are martyred in national disasters. This is also a glorious family and a worthy death. Qiu Cui has been diligent in serving the people since he became an official, organizing the military and civilians in various places and the financial industry.
Liu Yu fought against the captives and mobilized the Li people under his rule to unite and resist with the same hatred and hatred. But now he saw that the people in the city who had always respected and loved him coaxed the city gates open and directly attacked the group of people who had always been under Xiao Tang's command.
Soldiers and horses that he regarded as thieves and rebels were attracted to the state government office. Qiu Kai felt his heart bleed. His faith and determination to hold on to the city suddenly collapsed. Although there were some things that were inconvenient to say clearly, Qiu Kai didn't know it.
Nowadays, Xiao Tang's control over the people's hearts seems to have surpassed that of the imperial court. Isn't it precisely because of the ignorance of the Song court officials and the lack of clarity on the imperial court that led to the current situation that is difficult to reverse?
Although I have fulfilled the official orders, the imperial court has important responsibilities, the city has been destroyed and people have been killed, and I have sacrificed myself for the country, I can't break the oath I made...
After Qiu Cui said sadly, he suddenly raised the sword in his hand and put it directly on his neck. At this time, there was a noise in the distance, "Ms. Qiu! You can't do this!", "We have already begged you.
Several generals of the Qi Dynasty, even though Qiu Xianggong still refuses to surrender, they are determined not to cause trouble and harm themselves, so why do they have to seek death!?"
Although the exclamations of the people in the city around him could be heard faintly in his ears, Qiu Chan was already sure of himself. He closed his eyes, tightened the hilt of his sword, and was about to forcefully rub his neck...
..
"Bang!" A sharp arrow shot out. The arrow cluster accurately hit the sword in Qiu Cangchuo's hand, causing his arm to tremble violently. The long sword in his hand also fell to the ground.
Qiu Cang was frightened and angry. When he stared again, he saw a Qi army cavalry general still holding a riding bow in his hand, and he suddenly rode towards him. He quickly rushed in front of him like a whirlwind.
In the cavalry formation behind the general of the Qi army, a banner embroidered with "The governor of the Huaihe River and the Huaihe River is controlled by Sidu, and the east and west roads of Beijing are defended by Tang Bin" were fluttering in the wind.
Tang Bin looked down from a high position and looked at Qiu Cui, who was glaring over him, and said in a deep voice: "You are the Huaixi Xuanfu envoy Qiu Cai who is stationed in Luzhou? I heard from the folks in the city that you are a good official, but you are also a fool.
A stubborn person loyal to the Song Dynasty."
When Qiu Cui heard this, he was even more indignant. He immediately yelled: "Rebels! It's a pity that Qiu couldn't resist, and you, the thieves, took advantage of the opportunity to invade the state capital! Now, I have no choice but to die for my country and preserve my reputation, but that's not the case."
I have fulfilled your treasonous and rebellious intentions, why do you, the traitor, stop me? Now that you have taken down the city walls, you can treat the people well... That's all... I have no need to ask this question.
..... However, soldiers can be killed but not humiliated. If you think you can coerce me into surrendering to the rebels, you are just wishful thinking!"
Tang Bin has been following Xiao Tang Juyi for a long time, and he has met many obsessive officials like Qiu Ke who have a good reputation among the people, but do not have enough money to make money, and only focus on guarding the rules of the monarch and his ministers. Therefore, he is too lazy to talk to him.
Qiu Chou made a noise, and Tang Bin snorted coldly, and said: "Is it rare? I want you to have a good reputation as an official and serve the people, so I shot an arrow to stop you. And I, your majesty, have already attracted many talents in politics as a courteous corporal.
Everyone is vying to surrender, but you are the only one left? Even if you fall into the hands of our army, when negotiating with the Song Dynasty in the future, you may not be released, but if you are still obsessed with despising your own life, you are seeking death.
, it’s up to you. It’s just that you are foolishly loyal to the Song Dynasty and want to make enemies of our army with the people in the city. You are still seeking death and survival. Do you think the people will still miss you?"
"You!..." Tang Bin's words directly touched the pain point in Qiu Cang's heart. He wanted to argue for a while but didn't know where to start. Taking advantage of this time, people in the city had already swarmed.
He stepped forward, trying to block his waist and grabbing his hands. He was still worried about how he struggled to stretch his arms and kick his legs. He could no longer pick up his sword and tried to commit suicide again. Instead, he was being persuaded and dragged by a group of people to escort him.
Go down, no matter how much Qiuqiu struggles and flutters, it will be of no avail...
In the end, the Qi army could easily capture Hefei, the capital of Luzhou. There were also some officials in other state capitals who were stubbornly resisting. According to Wu Yong's design, he went to the city to issue military notices. Within a few days, the city erected
To lower the flag, the city defenders gathered the soldiers and civilians, or killed the chief officials in the city and hung their heads on poles, or directly took the officials in the government offices who refused to surrender and surrendered to the Qi army.
The soldiers were able to seize the city walls without losing any blood.
However, when the Qi army took over Qushan County under the rule of Haizhou (later Haizhou District, Lianyungang City, Jiangsu Province) on the East Road of Huainan, some twists and turns occurred. The prefect of Haizhou had already abandoned the city and escaped after hearing that the Qi army was marching southward.
The magistrate of Qushan County, on the other hand, opened the city gates and led the troops in the county to lower their heads and lower their eyebrows to respectfully invite the Qi troops under Pang Wanchun outside the city to enter the city to take over the county governance and issue orders to calm the people.
Originally, all the soldiers and civilians in Qushan County had surrendered. None of the Song troops defending the city had any intention of fighting to the death, and the ordinary people in the city had no intention of resisting. There should be no further setbacks in taking over the city here smoothly. But Pang Wanchun was in Qushan.
When Shan Zhixian led the way to the county government office, a man on horseback jumped out on the long street, blocking the path of all the troops marching towards him.
The man who seemed to be trying to intercept the Qi Dynasty's army all by himself had a broad forehead and square cheeks, sword-shaped eyebrows and sideburns. His appearance could be considered majestic. He was holding two large gold-plated red copper melon hammers in his hands and was pacing back and forth on his horse.
, and completely ignored that among the soldiers and horses of the Qi Dynasty on the opposite side, there was already a sergeant holding a stiff bow, and was about to draw an arrow to the string. Countless double moves had already caught his eye.
Upon seeing this, the magistrate of Qushan County immediately cried out in pain, and immediately shouted at the top of his voice: "Zhang Yanei, although he is the descendant of the honorable minister Ji Zhonggong, he has already accepted the official title and only lives with his relatives in the city.
He did not accept the official duties of the generals of the Song Dynasty. The junior officials had discussed together before, not wanting the people in the city to be affected by the war, and decided to surrender the city.
..."
Before the magistrate of Qushan County could finish complaining about his bitter words, Pang Wanchun patted him on the shoulder and persuaded him to move aside. Immediately, the war horse under his crotch neighed loudly and suddenly ran a few steps. He had been in countless battle formations in the past.
The hard bow that had used soul-stealing arrows and killed many enemy generals was also held in his hand. Pang Wanchun reached down with his other hand, ready to throw the wolf fang arrows in the quiver on the side of his shoulder at any time.
On the string, Pang Wanchun's slightly narrowed eyes also showed murderous intent, and then he shouted sternly: "Zhang Bofen, at the beginning I told Your Majesty that your father and son were loyal and martyrs who resisted the Jin Dynasty, and I rescued you from the Jin captives and released you.
Go and give your father's remains to you for a safe burial. Ordinarily, we have treated you with all our kindness and righteousness, but now we don't know what is good or bad, and dare to block our army, but we are alone, and we are deliberately seeking death. This is
