With a pop, the sharp sword in Luo Yanqing's hand cut off Yang Shengzu's throat in an instant. Yang Shengzu looked at his aunt in front of him, his face full of disbelief. He wanted to ask why this was happening, but
Blood and water kept pouring out of the severed throat, and no sound could be made.
The surrounding generals of Yang Shengzu were all shocked by Luo Yanqing's actions. Then Luo Yanqing's maids with swords all drew out their weapons. Taking advantage of the unprepared opportunity of Cao Ying's generals, they retaliate in the same way, causing pain.
He sent a killer and killed several of Yang Shengzu's cronies in one encounter.
Luo Yanqing looked at his nephew who had been killed by his own hands, closed his eyes, ordered his followers to chop off Yang Shengzu's head, held it up high, and shouted:
"Yang Shengzu followed Ji Gui, Yang Chengzu and other rebels to plot evil, assassinated Luo Shuai, king of Nanyang, massacred Zhao Yingyuan's family, collaborated with foreign enemies, and conspired with the Tatars to sneak attack the Dashun army. All the evidence of the crime was complete.
The defenders of Tongguan are all my old comrades in Cao Ying, how can they be used by villains? I am Luo Yanqing, Cao Ying's swordsman, and I am Luo Yanqing, Luo Rucai's sister. Everyone must obey my orders and kill Yang Shengzu and his party!"
Yang Shengzu was suddenly killed. Before Wang Long could react, other followers of Luo Yanqing who had just walked halfway through the door took out their weapons and suddenly attacked Wang Long.
There were only three or four personal guards around Wang Lung, and he was completely unprepared. He was attacked by Luo Yanqing's old and powerful soldiers who were pretending to be followers. They were no match at all and fell down one after another.
Wang Long had no choice but to see Niu Quan still tied up, so he rushed over and wanted to capture Niu Quan as a hostage. Unexpectedly, Niu Quan, who was originally tied tightly to the mule, calmly pulled the rope away.
He untied it, took out a self-fired short-handed blunderbuss, and shot Wang Lung who rushed towards him.
He was shot in the chest and was in unbearable pain. Then other entourages brought by Luo Yanqing rushed over. Wang Long had no idea that this coup was not the hand of Luo Rucai, but the arbitrary behavior of Ji Gui and Yang Chengzu. He was already confused.
Funeral objects were made.
Luo Yanqing's belly was slightly bulging, but her body was already covered with the blood spurted from Yang Shengzu's neck, and her whole body looked murderous. She raised Yang Shengzu's head, looked around, and said sternly:
"Yang Shengzu is dead! Everyone put down their weapons!"
The troops in Tongguanzhong, whether they were originally under Zhao Yingyuan or the troops brought by Yang Shengzu and Wang Long from Xi'an, were all Cao Ying's old troops. Who doesn't know Luo Rucai's biological sister Luo Yanqing?
Now that Yang Shengzu and Wang Long had been killed, Zhao Yingyuan's old troops naturally cheered for joy, and the remaining Xi'an defenders brought by Yang Shengzu had no choice but to put down their weapons.
Luo Yanqing, with only more than a hundred followers, actually so easily captured the Great Pass guarded by thousands of defenders. Niu Quan, who had been whipped by Wang Long in vain, stopped in his heart when he looked at the pregnant female murderer.
Constant chills:
The Princess of Jin is not only a woman but also a fierce and ruthless person, she is no less than His Highness the Prince of Jin.
Soon Luo Yanqing opened the gate of Tongguan, and Ma Jinzhong and Zhao Yingyuan then entered the city with 4,000 Chu troops drawn from Luoyang. The portion of Cao's camp in Guancheng that originally belonged to Zhao Yingyuan, although most of the generals had been killed by Yang Shengzu,
But ordinary soldiers also knew Zhao Yingyuan, and when they saw that he was still alive, they immediately switched sides.
The remaining Cao soldiers brought by Yang Shengzu and Wang Long were, on the one hand, intimidated by Luo Yanqing's prestige in Cao's camp, and on the other hand, because after the four thousand Chu soldiers entered the city and joined forces with Zhao Yingyuan's troops, they already had an absolute advantage.
Although this part of Cao's camp included some trusted generals brought by Yang Shengzu, they assessed the situation and felt that it was very unwise to continue to work for Ji Gui and Yang Chengzu.
Anyway, Luo Rucai, Yang Chengzu, and Luo Yanqing are all a family. Who is not taking refuge in someone?
As a result, the situation in Tongguan immediately stabilized. Luo Yanqing counted the troops in Guancheng at this time, and immediately decided to further select a total of 7,000 elite troops and march directly into Guanzhong.
Zhao Yingyuan said: "Xin Sizhong, Mi Laoyin, and Ding Guodong came to Xi'an with about 20,000 soldiers and horses. Except for the seven or eight thousand elite soldiers trapped in the city of Xi'an, they are estimated to have been solved by Yang Chengzu. There are still more than 10,000 Shun troops stationed in Lantian.
In this area, we can immediately rush to Lantian to join them, so that we may be able to reverse the situation."
Ma Jinzhong was once again horrified by Luo Yanqing's bold idea and said:
"Absolutely not! If Lantian's ten thousand soldiers are still there, how did Yang Shengzu come to Tongguan? I think this army must have been defeated or integrated by Yang Chengzu!
Ji Gui and Yang Chengzu arranged the food, fodder and garrison of the Guanzhong soldiers and horses. As long as they were willing, they could create a situation in advance that could easily defeat the Shun army.
If you bring such a small force into Guanzhong now, you may be throwing yourself into a trap!"
After Zhao Yingyuan returned to Guancheng, the first thing he did was to find his family. As expected, his wife and children had all been massacred by Yang Shengzu.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yingyuan was filled with grief and anger. He looked at Xi'an City from a distance and gritted his teeth: "Yang Chengzu and Ji Gui, these two despicable villains who rebelled and conspired to rebel, I will cut them into pieces."
Luo Yanqing felt a slight pain in her lower abdomen, but she did not say this. She still commanded the army without changing her expression and discussed the next step with Ma Jinzhong and Zhao Yingyuan.
Zhao Yingyuan was eager for revenge, while Ma Jinzhong believed that the troops of the Tongguan defenders were not aggressive enough, but they were more than enough to hold Tongguan. Now they should stabilize Tongguan and wait for reinforcements from Guojun Town from Kaifeng.
As long as Guo Junzhen leads his army to Tongguan and works together to restore Guanzhong, I believe that Yang Chengzu's rebels will soon be put down.
But Luo Yanqing was concerned about the threat from the Qing army, so she got words from Yang Shengzu and learned that Ji Gui had long conspired with Dorgon to join forces to attack Yuan Zongdi, who was stationed in northern Shaanxi.
If they only considered holding on to Tongguan, they would most likely sit back and let the rebels and the Qing army join forces to eliminate Yuan Zongdi's 30,000 elite troops. When northern Shaanxi falls, even if Guo Junzhen leads troops to capture Guanzhong, the Qing army will
The rebels can also use northern Shaanxi as their base and continue to move south to invade southern Shaanxi.
By then, the Donglu can bend their bows and herd horses in the Yansui and Ningxia areas, and the northern barriers in Guanzhong will be lost, and the enemy will be able to drive straight in. Dashun in Shaanxi is likely to repeat the Sixteen Kingdoms period of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The post-Qin regime in Guanzhong was overthrown by northern Shaanxi
The fate of the Hu Xia regime's demise.
"The 30,000 Shun troops under Yuan Zongdi's command are all Dashun's old and powerful soldiers. There can be no mistakes."
Luo Yanqing secretly covered her stomach with one hand. The increasingly severe pain had caused cold sweat to cover her forehead. However, both Ma Jinzhong and Zhao Yingyuan only thought that this was Luo Yanqing's anxiety due to the tense situation.
She looked alone at the far north, where the floating clouds in the sky met the Loess Plateau. Everything in the distance seemed like a mirage. The Qing soldiers were riding south, and how many refugees would be displaced in their hometown of Shaanxi, which had finally settled down?
Brother, is he still alive?
Luo Yanqing's eyes turned red. Her elder brother was like her father, and Luo Rucai treated her like her own father. If Luo Rucai was killed by the rebels, she didn't know whether she could withstand the blow of such bad news.
The thick soil of the Three Qin Dynasty rolled into yellow sand, war horses raised dust, thousands of miles of ravines, and thousands of miles of wind and sand. Luo Yanqing seemed to be able to see that the land of Guanzhong, which had just been lush and lush with fields, would be burned by the war into one continuous piece of desolation.
What's the crime of the people! What's the crime of the people of Qin? Yang Chengzu was also from Shaanxi. He also suffered from hunger and cold. He was once a refugee, a refugee, and a hungry citizen. How could he endure it? How could he, because of his own selfish desires, because of a person?
Is it human ambition to destroy the hard-won stability in Guanzhong?
