Liangmen opened first, and a large group of sergeants rushed in.
The second time the Zheng Gate opened, another thousand people entered.
Wang Tan was furious and wanted to kill Shi Yanci again.
This guy secretly connected with Zhang Guibian and Xie Yanzhang, and actually instigated some sergeants to open the Liang Gate first and let the Xia army enter the city.
The question of who opens the door first is very important.
But it's too late now, Shi Yanci has escaped somewhere, and it's not that easy to kill him.
Wang Tan stood by the road angrily, waiting for Soldier Xia's soldiers to pass by.
"Are you Wang Tan?" A general rode up and asked.
"The guilty general is Wang Tan." Wang Tan replied.
Before the king of Xia pardoned him, he was indeed one of the guilty generals.
"I will send someone to take over the city gate. Today we will clear out all the remaining thieves in the city. King Xia will enter the city tomorrow. Send all your soldiers out and hurry up." Niu Li swung his horsewhip and walked away.
Tianxiong's soldiers filed into the city, and no one glanced at Wang Tan. They kept walking and went straight to the fighting place in the city.
Wang Tan wanted to say a few words, but no one paid him any attention. He could only summon the sergeants and head towards the Wei family gate.
Zhu Youwen, Zhang Lang, and He Delun led their troops to break through the obstruction of a few rebel troops, and soon arrived at Weishi Gate.
When the officers and soldiers of the Guangsheng Army heard the unusual movements in the city, some of them followed the commotion, fled the barracks, and started robbing homes. Some of them took off their armor and rushed into private houses or returned to their own homes. The rest stayed in the barracks at a loss.
Inside, I don’t know what to do.
Zhu Youwen sent someone to make a rough plan, and found that there were nearly 3,000 people left. He immediately took them away and headed towards Liang Gate and Zheng Gate in the west of the city.
Along the way, they met many soldiers of the Shenjie Army and the Tianxing Army. They appealed to the commanders Wang Tan and Hua Wenqi and the street commander Shi Yanci to rebel and lure Xia soldiers into the city.
Zhu Youwen was very anxious after hearing this and said: "General Zhang, General He, you lead the troops to Liangmen as soon as possible. I will go to Zhengmen myself. We must not let the Xia thieves enter the city. Otherwise, everything will be over."
"As ordered." Zhang Lang took the order and left without saying a word.
Hedron hesitated and followed.
The two of them took some of the Shenjie Army and Tianxing Army soldiers who had been sheltered on the road, a total of more than 3,000 infantry and cavalry, and marched towards Liangmen.
With a determined look on his face, Zhu Youwen led more than 3,000 Guangsheng Army officers and soldiers towards Zhengmen.
The army advanced for more than 300 steps, and as soon as they saw Zhengmen in the distance, they encountered the left wing of the Tianxiong Army advancing through the wall.
"Shoot!" There was no need for the officer to give an order. The soldier in front bent his bow and fired.
You can't see clearly in the dark, so you just rely on your feeling. Raise your hand and release the arrow. At this time, you must pay attention to accuracy. At long distances, everyone has armor on their body, and it is difficult to shoot through the bow and arrow, so you must shoot accurately.
This is a big gap between veterans and new recruits.
Veterans can shoot quickly, accurately and with sufficient strength, but recruits are not only slow in movement, but their arrows are weak and weak. They often hit the chest and abdomen protected by armor and cannot go straight to the door, causing damage.
This round of rapid fire by the Tianxiong Army resulted in dozens of casualties from the Guangsheng Army. Those arrows were as if they were shot close to the face. It was obvious that they did not aim very well, but they were accurate every time they hit them. They were extremely cunning.
.
"Kill!" The riflemen stepped forward with their rifles in hand, shouting and making noise.
Guang Sheng's army was just crushed by the arrows and was a little confused. When they recovered a little, Tianxiong's army had already rushed towards them, and they were completely defeated.
"Don't retreat!" Zhu Youwen swung his heavy sword and slashed hard at a sergeant who turned around to run away. As a result, his attack was not accurate, and he slashed at the neck and finally hit the shoulder.
The man screamed loudly in pain and subconsciously thrust his sword forward, but it was blocked by Zhu Youwen's armor.
"What a thief!" Zhu Youwen yelled and waved his heavy sword, trying to kill him a second time.
"Hoo!" A spear shot through the air, hitting Zhu Youwen directly and nailing him to the ground.
"Zhu Youwen is dead! Why don't you come down quickly?" Under the night sky, Wang Jiao took off another throwing spear and shouted angrily.
Zhu Youwen was not dead yet. He was shot in the shoulder blade and lay on the ground unable to get up. But it made no difference whether he was dead or not. Everyone thought he was dead. Some of the soldiers of the Guangsheng Army collapsed, while others knelt down and begged for surrender. The scene was
Very spectacular.
When Zhang Lang and He Delun led their troops to rush to the vicinity of Liangmen, they also encountered the Tianxiong army entering the city.
The two sides didn't say anything and started killing each other directly.
The sergeants in the Guard City had a stronger will to fight and were not defeated as easily as the Guangsheng Army. After all, Zhu Quanzhong often rewarded the captured enemy town officials with money, silk, wine and meat, and gave them their wives and daughters to play with. He did not express gratitude to the Zhu family, but he would never
Maybe "shooting twice is enough to be worthy of the emperor".
More than two thousand soldiers were engaged in a brutal fight on the street. People kept falling, and the casualties increased sharply at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Zhang Lang, come and die!" A loud shout rang out from the city gate, and Zhang Guibian came over with more than two hundred soldiers to kill him.
Seeing the enemy's reinforcements, Liang Jun's morale was dampened and his position became somewhat loose.
"General He, let the cavalry charge and drive the thieves out." Zhang Lang shot three arrows in a row, specifically targeting the Xia Army officers who were carrying flags. In the dark, the arrows were all fired, killing three martial arts students in a row.
"The streets are narrow, so I'm afraid I won't be able to rush forward." He Delun hesitated.
"Charge!" Zhang Lang roared angrily, bent his bow and arrow again, and killed one person.
Hedron left in a hurry.
After a while, the sound of horse hooves began to sound, getting closer and closer and more urgent.
"Puff!" "Bang!" "Crack!"
Hundreds of cavalry charged and actually killed Liang Jun from behind.
"What a thief!" "Beast!" "Do you want Hedron to rebel too?"
After hearing a series of curses behind him, Zhang Lang was shocked. As soon as he turned his head, he saw a horse running towards him with a long spear.
Zhang Lang felt a sharp pain in his chest, and his armor was like paper, unable to provide any protection, and he was picked up by Ma Shu.
"Zhang Lang is dead! Stop fighting!" He Delun shouted while riding on his horse.
"Zhang Lang is dead, stop fighting!" someone shouted.
The sergeants in the guard capital all let out a burst of mourning, and no one stopped. Instead, they fell into a state of hysteria, fighting for their lives with the Tianxiong Army and the Desheng Army until they died.
The Shenjie Army and Tianxing Army who were dragged in took the opportunity to slip away and disappear into the night.
A second group of sergeants rushed in from Liangmen.
The Tianxiong army's right wing envoy Xie Bin personally led the team, and a full two thousand infantry came in, surrounded the remaining guards and sergeants, and charged and killed them repeatedly.
Compared with the fierce battles at Liangmen and Zhengmen, there was almost no resistance in the direction of Caomen.
The soldiers of Tianxing Army fought among themselves, and those who were unwilling to surrender or were too late to surrender were wiped out, leaving thousands of people lined up and marched to the city.
After them, Wang Jianji, the commander of the Tianxiong Army, entered the city with a thousand cavalry, and searched the streets for the Liang soldiers who were running around.
Li Renjun, the deputy envoy of the Tianxiong Army, led two thousand infantry into the Song Gate. The journey went smoothly and went straight to the north of the city, firmly controlling the inside and outside of Yacheng.
At this point, Bianzhou City can basically be said to be completely under control. Except for a few areas that are still fighting, the streets are full of conquerors, marking the change of hands of the entire city.
The people of Bianzhou were not deaf or blind, so they naturally heard the sound of fighting that resounded throughout the night on the streets.
How many years have passed, even when the Cai thieves were at their most rampant, no one could approach Bianzhou, let alone capture the city. The entry of the Xia army into the city was the first time in the life experiences of many Bianliang people.
Indescribably complex.
But they were all hiding at home. Even if there were a few brave young men who wanted to go out with a knife to fight with the Xia people, they were held down by their family members. There are so many people outside, it doesn’t matter if you go out and die, you will also harm your family.
What's the matter?
After dawn, the battle was basically over.
Liang Jun's prisoners were escorted out of the city in groups, and officials were counting them outside.
Liang Jun, who had finished his duties early, also lined up out of the city, waiting for the next order.
Tianxiong's army entered tens of thousands of people last night, and did not stop at all after dawn. They came to search the whole city. They searched every house to see if any Liang soldiers or generals were hiding in private houses.
They searched very carefully, even turning over boxes and cabinets, and even the cellar.
Don't tell me, we really caught a lot of defeated soldiers. Those who resisted were killed on the spot, and those who obeyed were taken outside the city and screened uniformly.
This is a required step.
King Xia gave them one day. If one day was not enough, then two days or three days. He could afford to wait. The only requirement was safety. Don't let the remaining soldiers suddenly come out when he entered the city. If something happened,
I am afraid that more than 200,000 people inside and outside Bianzhou City will be buried with him.
"At midnight last night, Zhang Guibian opened the city first, and the Tianxiong Army's first commander, a thousand people, entered first. Wang Tan opened the Zheng Gate again, and the first commander, a thousand people, followed. At three o'clock in the morning, Hua Wenqi opened the Cao Gate, and the Tianxiong Army
Thousands of horses enter the city..." In the camp outside the city, Chen Cheng was introducing the situation of last night's battle to Shao Shude, who had finished practicing his martial arts.
"The one who opens the city first takes the lead." Shao Shude said: "In this battle, Zhang Guibian, Shi Yanci, and Xie Yanzhang took the lead."
"As ordered." Chen Cheng responded without any objection.
Zhang Guibian took the lead in opening the city, which was certainly his first achievement.
Shi Yanci contacted Wang Tan and rescued Zhang Guibian and Xie Yanzhang, which was also the first success.
Xie Yanzhang was even more impressive. He led the soldiers to capture the inner city and saved the most important treasury. His contribution was equally great.
"How many people were captured?" Shao Shude asked again.
"The statistics haven't been completed yet, but there are still tens of thousands of people." Chen Cheng replied.
Anyway, the sergeants mainly come from the Shenjie and Tianxing 2nd Army, and less from the Guangsheng Army. The total number is about six to seven thousand.
Calculating this, we should have killed more than 4,000 Shenjie, Tianxing, and Guangsheng armies last night, plus nearly 3,000 miscellaneous troops such as guards and street envoys.
"According to the order, the troops were surrendered and reorganized into the Guangsheng Army. The military envoy Zhang Guibian and the deputy envoy Xie Yanzhang. The cavalry of the Desheng Army were also organized into the Guangsheng Army, and He Delun was appointed as the Youyi Envoy."
"Send the order and the Shenjie and Tianxing armies will merge and form the Shenjie Army. Wang Tan will be appointed as the envoy and Hua Wenqi will be appointed as the deputy envoy. If they dare to complain, they will be hunted and killed."
"With the order, Yicong, Feng'an, and Tianzhu armies came to Bianzhou to accept reorganization."
"Biao Shi Yan resigned as the governor of Songzhou."
After issuing a series of orders, Shao Shude waited outside the city for two days.
On the sixth day of October, surrounded by his own soldiers, he entered the city in style.
