I have a fortune book

Chapter 291
Qingwu city is governed by the state city, which is strong and dangerous, and has abundant food and grass. It can still cobble together nearly [-] defenders.

According to the strength of the defenders on paper, this is a fortified city that is difficult to break through, but the way to use troops is to attack the heart first and attack the city lower.

Zhao Xun, the false Marquis of Liang, already had this city in his hands, and the entire Liangzhou had not yet taken over the Xia soil.

After confirming Li Dingguo's progress in Nanfu County, Zhou Bai was not in a hurry, other than ordering the moat to be filled up, the arrow tower knocked down, and to keep the siege and not attack.

The main way to attack the heart every day is to call out propaganda, publicize the Great Xia policy and inform all parties.

Liang Jun's high-level officials couldn't stop it even if they wanted to. When the morale couldn't support the army to fight and harass, the shouts of the loud warriors with the blessing of true energy could spread all over the city wall.

You said that Xia Jun was all liars, but Zhou Bai never stopped the outside messengers from entering the city. Zhao Xun was able to deceive some civilians, but he couldn't deceive the big households and generals in the city.

The old Marquis of Liang was granted the title of Marquis of Anle, and he could spend his old age in peace. Many of the Xia soldiers outside the city were former elite Liang soldiers, and the people of Liang who suffered from famine received real relief...

If these were just to shake the soldiers of Liang Jun, then the subsequent news that Changyan County was broken and Nanfu County fell would completely break the psychological defense of the defenders.

There are no reinforcements outside, and the back road is cut off. If you continue to hold on and cause casualties to Xia Jun, isn't it self-inflicted?

For several days in a row, Xuanyiwei Anzi and the Xu family's multi-year arrangements were all activated, causing true and false rumors to fly in the sky in Qingwu City, and people's hearts were deflected.

After Zhao Xun woke up, he used bloody suppression to temporarily control the situation, but there was no law and gods to monitor, and the undercurrent was still raging and could not be suppressed at all.

He is not the old Lianghou Zhao Qi, there are too few loyal people who can be relied on and trusted, and it is possible that most of the supervisory teams sent out now will rebel.

At the end of November in the seventh year of Tongzhi, Zhou Bai, in front of Zhao Xun and Qingwu Mancheng soldiers and civilians, personally supervised and beheaded the "big men" including the Lord of Changyan and the governor of Nanfu County.

In the black smoke of hundreds of captured military flags and burning, Xinliang's last hope was cut off alive.

That night, many rebellions broke out in Qingwu City. Several "loyal" guards instigated the uprising, and then there were strong and powerful clans who responded, and for a while there were wars everywhere.

Even though Zhao Xun had expected it and prepared to suppress it in time, the Xia army outside the city launched a full-scale offensive at the right time, and everything brought the defensive situation to the end of collapse.

In the Lianghou Palace, which is composed of government offices and mansions, the lights are brightly lit, and hundreds of guards in armor and holding knives silently guard Zhao Xun.

He huddled on the Jiaolongjun chair in the hall, closed his eyes and listened to the bad news one after another. It was not difficult to find that Zhao Xun was quite calm at this time.

"Report, the Nancheng rebels opened the city gate, General Zhao He abandoned the outer city, and is relying on the Central South Neighborhood City to resist."

"Report, the left and right battalions of the Feihe Army lost contact, and the four guards of the Forbidden Army were ambushed by an unknown enemy. They are currently fighting near the granary."

"It is reported that the ancestral houses of Qian, Ning and Yuan have been brought under control, but the whereabouts of core figures such as the patriarch have not been found."

"...Your Majesty, General Miao suddenly appeared in Dongcheng, and now the Xiyuan Army in charge of defending Dongcheng has given up resistance."

General Miao, Miao Zishi?After hearing this name, Zhao Xun finally couldn't help opening his eyes.

He just wanted to ask his subordinate Miao Zishi how to escape, but the anger in his heart rose and died, and he laughed and shook his head and continued to sit back.

At the beginning, because of the grace of teaching for many years, I didn't have the heart to kill, so I should have expected this day.

It turned out that among the prison guards guarding Miao Zishi, someone was a disconnected Xu family Anzi. Xu Yuanchen didn't even have a list of this kind of Anzi.

Whether it was forced by the situation, or Anzi was really loyal, Daxia's side decisively made plans based on the secret report.

Xuanyiwei didn't participate too much in the turmoil in the city in the middle of the night, and the hidden power was basically used to rescue Miao Zishi.

The secret prison is tightly guarded, and there are insiders who should disclose their defenses, and Xuanyi guards attack and kill regardless of casualties.

As soon as Miao Zishi was rescued, Dongcheng took advantage of the situation.

Using Qingwu City's many powerful clans and rebel forces as pawns to divert Zhao Xun's attention, while concentrating his own efforts on attacking Zhao Xun's death spot, can be regarded as making Xuanyiwei famous again.

Miao Zishi served successively as the governor of Liangzhou in the Daxu Dynasty and the former general of Liang State chariots. He fought against the grassland invaders for a long time, protected the people of one side, and had considerable influence in the Liangzhou military and even the people.

The situation has deteriorated to this point, and the old Liang army guarding the East City simply surrendered.

The old Marquis Liang, and even millions of people in Liangzhou lived well under Daxia's rule, why couldn't they.

When Xinliang was reestablished, many veterans had hoped that Zhao Xun would lead them to rejuvenate, but now that the war is on the horizon, the result is in front of them.

So they understood that what Liangzhou needs is the True Hero Lord and the Holy Lord, otherwise the troubled times, military disasters and all kinds of calamities will come back again.

In the east city tower, the fights were scattered, and a group of loyal Liang army guards had just been besieged and killed by their former comrades.

But these vicious generals and soldiers are respectful in front of an old man with white hair and beard.

"General, as long as you are fine, Marquis Zhao locked you up. We don't know whether you are alive or dead."

"Miao Shuai, we are all on the verge of drawing blood, what should we do next, please order!"

"Great Xia stands in the two states, maybe he will dominate the northern border, and he can follow you on the battlefield in the future..."

The old man is naturally Miao Zishi, who has been called a legend all his life, even after going through tonight's shocking changes, he still maintains a calm posture.

The old subordinates are all familiar faces, which can dispel some of the sadness of cannibalism, but listening to a few reckless soldiers talking more and more outrageously, Miaozi glanced at the people in the corner, not daring to let them go any further.

"Ahem, Duke Xia is a sage monarch, so naturally he won't treat us harshly, but how can you ask us what to do in the future?!"

"Even if Duke Xia allows me to live in seclusion in the countryside and be with the cows, it is my honor."

Some straight-minded military academies didn't know what it meant, but some generals who were familiar with Miao Zishi reacted and stopped the talkative people one after another.

Only then did they realize that in the corner there was a big man who hadn't made a sound, Yao Ping, the Commander of Xuanyiwei.

As the strength of Xia Kingdom became stronger and the intensity of foreign wars gradually increased, Xuanyiwei, as a spy agency, was unable to participate in frontal confrontation, and his sense of existence was significantly reduced.

In the process of attacking Liangzhou, it was basically used as a support, but now it is easy to overthrow a regime, which is enough to show that Xuan Yiwei's fangs have never been dull.

Seeing everyone's eyes gathering, Yao Ping walked out shaking his head, cupped his hands and said, "Miao Shuai is too worried. Before this operation, the emperor told you many times that he can only succeed and not fail. He has long been thinking about the soldiers of Liangzhou, how could he be willing to let you go?" Resign from office and go back to seclusion, the huge Qingwu City is not as good as you.

Miao Zishi smiled slightly when he heard the words, no matter how true or false, he should be useful in Daxia.

"The generals listened to the order and immediately followed Wang Shi to pacify the other three cities. Tonight will be the time to take the crime and make meritorious service..."

"Here!"

Miao Zishi was no longer scruples, and in his old age, he put on armor and drew his sword, showing his decisiveness in killing.

Under his dispatch, the old Liang army in Dongcheng quickly restored its organizational system, and groups of rebels with white cloths on their sleeves marched to the streets and alleys of Qingwucheng.

……

In the blink of an eye, the night battle in Qingwu City continued into the second half of the night.

Because of Miao Zishi's "rebellion", the old Dongcheng troops pushed hard, and the Liang army in Qingwucheng resisted much less, and most of them were just showing off.

The four cities fell, military camps, granaries, government offices and other important places were all occupied by the Xia army. Zhao Xun's loyal subordinates of his son for many years were completely lost.

In Lianghou Palace, which is located in the core of the inner city, messengers came and went, and the panic became more and more serious.

Because by this time, the [-] defenders no longer obeyed the command here.

In the dark night, the bright lights of Lianghou Palace seem to be guiding the Xia army and rebels outside.

"I'm the first daughter of the Ning clan, you slaves want to kill me with poison, you're so daring!"

"No, don't, Junhou save me..."

Accompanied by the screams in several rooms, Zhao Xun Xinna's concubines all died, which shows that everything has come to an end.

"Your Majesty, the medical officer has tested, if the wife is pregnant, why not stay, someone must offer incense after you die." The guard who had just executed the order sighed puzzled.

"The families of these lowly maidservants eat inside and out, so it's cheaper for them to leave before me."

"As for the incense, a rebellious son who was expelled from the Zhao family, tell me how to continue the incense, hahahaha." Zhao Xun's laughter was loud, and the night wind rang through the palace, but there was not a single one of the hundreds of guards guarding here His complexion is different.

Zhao Xun wiped the jade-inlaid sword in his hand as if nothing had happened, and said calmly: "The priests are not here, are they?"

"Master, let me say that these Taoists can't be trusted!" The guard said angrily, full of murderous aura.

"Well, they are all idiots, don't you think Zhou Bai will tolerate them?"

At this time, the sound of shouting and killing sounded outside the gate of the mansion, and the guards rushed forward to fight hard without saying a word.

"Kill! Capture the false Marquis alive!"

"Go in, catch the living ones, Fengguan Yinzi..."

The overwhelming military aura and murderous aura rushed towards Zhao Xun, wiped out all the Wang Zigui aura on his body, all the foreign luck was dissipated, and chaos added to him.

"In the end, the winner is the king and the loser, so-and-so, it's not worth mentioning."

At the last moment when he raised his sword and killed himself, Zhao Xun recalled his first half of life, and actually regretted wasting it.

If the fate could be reversed ten years earlier, perhaps everything would be completely different.

Liangzhou's unique purple qi origin fell into darkness in the turmoil, and the luck dragon python had nowhere to hide, and appeared whimpering.

A ichthyosaur roaming in the sky is excited to dive when it sees its prey. In addition to the long-drawn dragon snake swallowed some time ago, this dragon python will soon become a dragon with four claws.

In the early morning of the first day of December, the cold winter wind swept across the land of Liangzhou, blowing away the blood of Qingwu City, and also the unruly dragon veins of Liangzhou.

With the unification of Liangzhou, if you look at the atmosphere from the overall situation, you will find that the direction of the dragon air flow in the entire northern region, Daxia has already taken the lead.

It was snowing heavily, Zhou Bai did not return to Xiyuan, but inspected the southern counties of Liangzhou.

Including Qingwu, Changyan, and Nanfu, they are all newcomers, and people's hearts are uncertain.

He wants to hurry up this winter, complete casting and integration, and send troops to the west after the spring of next year.

When digesting the Dragon Qi of Liangzhou, the luck fish and dragons are extremely uneasy, and they are very vigilant and look to the west at all times, which is not in line with common sense.

So Zhou Bai took advantage of the inspiration brought by his promotion to the Faxiang Realm, watched the situation in the world, and was shocked to find that the land of Shu had already become a dragon with four claws.

It wasn't that he was militaristic, it was really forced by the weather. He never thought that a chaotic Shu land would unexpectedly become unified.
