Chapter 281

On March [-]th, a great battle...like a massacre unfolded outside Tongya City.

Monk Sari captured Shanchan City with unstoppable momentum, and then rushed westward to Tongya City.

He originally thought that before the Mongols could react, Tongshi City must have been captured, and Gao Qiong would definitely kill the Mongol defender Xiancheng, and then either fall to the rebels or pretend to be defeated and flee.

Occupy Tongshi City, advance to attack Dali, and retreat to ensure that Shanchan City will not be attacked.

The rebel army claimed to have an army of 20, and led half of the soldiers and horses to march westward with 10 people. In fact, there were only more than [-] people, but they were also very powerful and morale was high.

However, just after leaving the valley to the east of Tongya City, they encountered an ambush.

The gate of Tongshi city was closed tightly, Duan's Dali soldiers killed from the valley, blocked the road, surrounded the rebels and slaughtered them.

The rebel army was hastily formed and untrained; there was no armor, not to mention leather or iron armor; the weapons were only a few knives, and more bows and arrows and bamboo spears.

The high morale was defeated almost instantly when encountering the enemy.

……

Duan Shi did not intend to defeat these rebels.

He wants to kill them all.

Only by the most brutal suppression can he make the Great Khan feel his loyalty; only by cutting off more heads can he make greater military exploits.

"Guardian General, I mean that you don't have to accept surrender. Only by killing all these traitors who dare to betray the Mongolian Kingdom can we deter others. What do you think?"

The Mongolian commander guarding Dali City was named "Yexian". He nodded and laughed loudly, "General Duan has the demeanor of a Mongolian general, hahaha."

Duan Shi clapped his palms and laughed, echoed a few words in Mongolian, and said: "Then I will send the order down?"

"Okay." Ye Xian laughed and replied, "Let's kill it."

Duan Shi walked a few steps, recruited a confidant, and said in a low voice: "Send a team to rescue the demon monk from the battlefield, and let them stay with the demon monk from now on."

"General, is this?"

"Go." Duan Shi smiled.

As far as he is concerned, this counter-insurgency has made great achievements and has caught the eyes of the Mongols, but what about the future?

If there is no more rebellion in Dali, it is due to his brother Duan Xingzhi.The question is, Duan Xingzhi is over forty years old, who should hold the position of Dali General Manager in the future?
Save the demon monk's life, and send people to watch over him, and if he wants to suppress the rebellion and make meritorious service, he will make meritorious service in suppressing rebellion.When he becomes the general manager of Dali, he can get rid of the demon monk at any time.

……

On this day, the relic monk escaped from the battlefield with a few people.

Outside the city of Tongya, rivers of blood flowed, and corpses littered the field.

~~
March thirteenth.

He also led the troops eastward to recover Shanchan City.

Before he entered the army, Duan Shi asked: "General Ye first, there may be rebellion in the city, can you allow me to investigate and deal with it?"

"Haha, of course." Yexian agreed very readily, "General Duan has done a great job this time, some small things, let's see."

Duan Shi then occupied Tongya City and began to clean up the rebellion.

"Come in."

Following his order, several Dali soldiers escorted Gao Junjin into the house.

With both hands pinned, Gao Junjin said with a dazed look on his face, "Your Majesty, what did I do?"

Duan Shi waved his hand, and said solemnly: "Don't call me 'King of England', call me 'General', I am the vanguard general of the Mongolian Kingdom, so don't confuse me anymore."

"Yes, I am also an official of the Great Mongolia. I wonder why General Duan captured me?"

"Come on, Gao Qiong protects the traitor Gao Changshou, and secretly communicates with the demon monk."

Gao Junjin said: "There is absolutely no such thing..."

"I thought you were a smart person." Duan Shi interrupted Gao Junjin, got up and took two steps, and said: "It's useless for you to cover up for Gao Qiong, I'll kill him and his two sons. To be honest, this is my old enmity between Duan and Gao, I wanted to kill him a long time ago.

When Gao Taixiang was beheaded in Wuhua Building, Monan Wang praised his loyalty and granted Gao Qiong the hereditary Tongshi City.This position can't be empty anymore, I plan to let you be the heir to Gao Taixiang, the hereditary city lord of Tongya.Since then, the feud between the Duan family and the Gao family has ended, and you and I will join hands to guard the southwest for the Mongolian Kingdom.

If you don't want to, then die with Gao Qiong.You have also seen the tragedy outside the city.Gao Changshou may be one of them. He was not the lord of Jianchuan City, and if he insisted on rebelling, this would be his end.The matter is very simple, just think about it, whether you will be prosperous and rich for generations, or you will be skinned and boned by me, you consider. "

Gao Junjin was silent for a long time.

Duan Shi smiled, and asked his subordinates to tell him: "He doesn't want to be the successor of Gao Taixiang, a 'loyal official of the Duan clan', so go and eunuch him first, and then peel off his skin. There will be a lot of rewards... and his younger brother Gao Junchang will be brought here."

"General, I... recruited."

"Ah."

Gao Junjin closed his eyes, and said, "Gao Changshou is in the Guanyinqing Yi village in the south of the city...Gao Qiong did have correspondence with the relic monk, and there was a letter written by Gao Qiong that I didn't have time to hand over, it was on me... ...They also intend to ally with the Song Army..."

~~
Guanyinqing.

Gao Changshou's face was gloomy.

The road to Tongya City was blocked, and he didn't know what happened in the city.But he already had a premonition that the situation was not going well, so he got his subordinates ready to leave here at any time.

Yesterday, he led people quietly to the north, climbed a high mountain outside Tongshi City, and saw the scene of the rebel army being defeated.

This made Gao Changshou a little disheartened.

All along, what he wanted to do was to raise an uprising like Monk Sari, enter Dali City, overthrow Duan Xingzhi, and expel Meng Da.

Back then Gao Changshou failed in Jianchuan.This time, the relic monk did better than he did back then.Taking advantage of the people's complaints and hatred for Mongolia; taking advantage of the death of Wulianghetai and the weakness of the Mongolian army's eastern expedition... Tens of thousands of people responded with great momentum.

This is exactly what Gao Changshou expected... Then, he was slaughtered.

It was like cutting Gao Changshou's heart with a knife.

He felt his years of anticipation shattered.

Gao Qiong, Li Xia, and Gao Mingyue have been persuading him not to be hasty, "There is no hope for the restoration of Dali", "I don't think highly of you", "There is no national power to rely on, and everything will fail..." every word echoed in his ears.

He understood that if it wasn't for these dissuasions, he would have been buried in the sea of ​​corpses and blood outside Tongshi City by now.

But Gao Changshou was not at all rejoicing, he only had grief and worry in his heart.

He desperately rushed back to Guanyinqing's village.

"Let's go! Don't want the confiscated things, go now!"

Gao Changshou rushed into the stockade with fast steps, commanding his subordinates to assemble, while he ran back home.

"Miaoyin, hold the baby... Mingyue, let's go."

"You really lost?" Gao Mingyue didn't panic, and asked as she walked with her bags on her back.

"A big defeat." Gao Changshou said: "The defeat was too miserable...unimaginably miserable."

Duan Miaoyin asked in a panic, "Where are we going?"

"First go to the high mountain to hide for a while, and then I will find a way to contact Feiyu on Wuchi Road."

"Where's Big Brother?"

"Let's go first." Gao Changshou said: "I will try to find out about him."

There are more than [-] people in the old department and the people in the stockade, but there are all men, women and children, and the journey is not fast.

Gao Changshou was even more worried, so he had to bring more than two hundred young men to break the road behind.

After walking for a day and a night, at dawn on March [-]th, I suddenly saw more than ten fast horses galloping behind.

"Muru..."

Gao Changshou looked back, and when he saw the person coming, his eyes were full of surprise, and he hurriedly greeted him.

"Cousin sent you? Is he all right?"

It was Gao Junjin's younger brother Gao Junchang who came, he got off his horse and asked, "Where is Mu Ru going?"

"I saw that the road was blocked by Duan's family, and they were worried about accidents, so they moved people to the mountain."

Gao Junchang said: "That's right, it's better to be careful."

"Brother, he..."

In the middle of Gao Changshou's speech, he dodged in a blink of an eye, and Gao Junchang's dagger had already pierced his elbow.

With a sound of "poof", Gao Changshou quickly drew the knife in his hand, plunged it into Gao Junchang's stomach, and restrained him.

Regardless of the blood under his elbow, he rushed to the crowd and shouted: "Don't come over!"

The dozen or so people on the horse ignored it and just shot arrows.

"Puff puff……"

The arrow pierced Gao Junchang's body.

Gao Changshou didn't even have time to ask, "Why did you betray me?" He dropped Gao Junchang's body, rolled into the woods beside the path, and shouted, "Go..."

"Kill it."

Farther away, groups of Duan's Dali soldiers came out.

"Siege them, don't let them escape..."

~~
Duan Shi looked at the map and drew a circle in Guanyinqing.

As far as he is concerned, the relic monk can be used to support the bandits, but Gao's rebellion must be wiped out.

"Cut to kill..."
