The general who defended the city led his soldiers into a fierce battle with the army of the palace that rushed up the city wall. Seeing that many cavalry rushed into the city first, he was very anxious.

He wanted to shoot down the enemies outside the city from a high position, and he also wanted to lead his troops down the city wall to kill the enemies who broke into the city. However, more and more soldiers of the Yu Dynasty rushed to the city wall. The fall of the city is imminent!
In the past, it was easy to defend the city and difficult to attack it. None of the generals on Annan's side thought that the soldiers and horses of the Dayu Dynasty would have such powerful cannons, which not only had a long range but also greatly increased their power. opened.

Li Chengmu led his cavalry into the city, and frantically harvested the enemy's heads. Such a fierce momentum scared the other Annan soldiers who hadn't approached and fled in a hurry. Those who couldn't escape immediately threw away their weapons. Kneeling on the ground, for fear of moving his head later.

Xiang Rongrang, who was commanding the rear, saw Li Chengmu rushing into the city desperately with the help of binoculars, and without any hesitation, he immediately ordered the captain of the personal guard beside him, "You take people into the city to protect Fifth Master, and make sure he is not hurt. return!"

The captain of the personal guard hesitated for a moment, "Then you, my lord."

Although the fifth master is important, he is Xiang Zongbing's personal guard. Of course, Xiang Zongbing is more important in his mind.

Xiang Rongrang looked around, except for Li Chengzhan, Li Chengli, and Li Chengyi who stayed where they were, among the masters in the palace, only the silly fifth master rushed into the city with his troops, and there were quite a few guards around the masters. There is no need to worry about his personal safety at all.

Following his gaze, the captain of the personal guard naturally also saw the soldiers and horses guarding here, without any hesitation, he immediately ordered some of the personal guards to ride horses and rushed into the city with the team.

As more and more soldiers and horses rushed into the city, the city wall of Xiangzhou was occupied, and Xiang Rongrang took several masters into the city and climbed the city wall.

Standing on the city wall, because he was worried about Li Chengmu who rushed into the city to kill the enemy, he picked up the binoculars to look for him.

In fact, after entering the city, Li Chengmu is easy to find. He has the most people around him, and he may be influenced by him. They are all a group of soldiers who are going forward bravely. Very easy to recognize in the city.

Xiang Rongrang looked at this scene, and then looked at Li Chengzhan, Li Chengyi, Li Chengli and others who had been hiding in the back since the war, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the same father's species, how could there be such a big difference?

In the city of Xiangzhou, under the influence of a blue figure, there were cries, screams, and the sound of horseshoes everywhere, and all Annan soldiers who resisted were beheaded wherever they passed.

More Annan army soldiers fled to other city gates, and they wanted to escape from the other city gates before the Dayu Dynasty army controlled them.

People's potential is unlimited, just to see if they are pushed to the bottom.

In order to survive, the soldiers of Annan's army hated their old lady for losing two legs, so they rushed to other city gates to escape.

Escape fast, escape from birth, and there will be great things in the future!
If you escape slowly, you will die, and you will have no chance to start again!

Annan's city guard knew that under such circumstances, the military order could not be conveyed at all, and no soldiers would listen to him at this time, which meant that there was no way to organize the soldiers to fight back.

The situation quickly collapsed, and Annan's city guard generals could only break out of the city with a group of soldiers in embarrassment.

Li Chengmu had long noticed that the commander of Annan's guard, a coward who didn't even dare to show his banner in order to escape, made the fleeing Annan army soldiers lean towards him.

However, this happened to be convenient for him.

"The west gate is the farthest from the enemy army. It will take time for them to control it. Let's kill it and attack from the west gate!"

General Annan glanced at the burning houses in the city and the officers and soldiers of Yu Dynasty who were chasing after him, and said to the people around him.

As soon as the words fell, following the gunshots, the guard behind him grunted and fell to the ground after being shot.

Da Da was taken aback. He turned his head to check the situation behind him, but saw that many soldiers running behind him were shot and fell to the ground. It was almost impossible to die immediately after being shot. The screams of the fallen soldiers, It really provoked the nerves of the fugitive soldiers who ran ahead.

Li Chengmu noticed that the Annan soldiers in front were running faster, and hurriedly ordered everyone to shoot indiscriminately.

"Bah ah!"

With the sound of gunfire, the enemy army in front suffered a large number of casualties.

The soldiers following Li Chengmu on Dayu's side were all chasing after them on horseback, and gave heavy blows to anyone who got in the way.

Annan's garrison general Da Dao could not escape the fate of being captured. After being captured alive, he tried to break free from the shackles, but it was in vain after all.

On the top of the wall, Da Da was kicked by Feng Tu in the crook of his foot, and his body knelt on the ground uncontrollably.

Li Chengmu looked contemptuously at the enemy general kneeling in front of him, pointed to the inside of the city and said, "Does the scene below look like purgatory?"

Da Da raised his head and looked into the city, condescendingly, at this time he could see the tragic scene in the city more clearly.

Wherever one enters the eye, it is a purgatory on earth!
The situation was one-sided, and the soldiers and horses of the Dayu Dynasty set fire everywhere and shot and killed Annan's soldiers, but all the civilians who dared to resist did not escape the fate of massacre.

The yamen and the barracks were even more ablaze. Seeing the scene in front of him, Chang Chang's eyes were full of grief and despair!
Xiangzhou City is finished this time!

Li Chengmu and Feng Tu naturally saw his expression in their eyes.

Feng Tu thought of the ruins he saw at the border when he came here, and the pleasure of revenge appeared on his face.

He bent forward and patted Da Da's face, "How does it feel to see your soldiers and people being slaughtered? You feel very sad, right? Do you know that when you took up the butcher's knife to attack us Dayu's people, there was Have you ever thought about retribution? Have you ever thought that you will be slaughtered by us one day?"

Of course, Da Dao couldn't understand Feng Tu's words, but there was an interpreter beside him, who conveyed the original words to him.

After hearing what the interpreter said, Changda shouted excitedly, "You beasts, our general will not let you go, just wait for the general to avenge Xiangzhou City!"

Before the interpreter could speak, Feng Tu kicked him for a long time, "You have a stubborn temper. You are so arrogant after being captured, and dare to yell at us. Be careful and take your dog's head!"

As he said that, he didn't care about the enemy general who didn't understand the language, but asked Li Chengmu: "Fifth Master, how do we arrange the prisoners this time?"

Because they still have a lot of things to do, they need to clear Xiangzhou City before the arrival of enemy reinforcements.

There are many factors that trigger a war. For example, in this battle of Xiangzhou, the revenge of the soldiers and horses of the palace is not the only purpose.

The supplies and captives in Xiangzhou City are all needed by the palace.

Li Chengmu looked at the east city wall in the distance, the flags were fluttering on the wall over there, and the coach this time was there.

He said lightly: "All the generals with more than a hundred households will be taken back to wait for the father, queen and concubine to deal with them. The other captives will all be sent back to work as coolies to contribute to the construction of our Lingnan."

"What about the people in the city?"

"Of course I'm taking him back!" Li Chengmu asked Feng Tu impatiently this time, pointing to Da Da, "Put him on and follow me to see the general soldier."

Xiang Rongrang was arranging personnel to search out the supplies and population in the city, quickly loaded them into vehicles, and drove the captives back to Siling.

"General Xiang, what's the value of bringing these people back? It's better to throw them away than to waste food." Li Chengzhan didn't understand what the use of dragging these burdens to Xiang Rongrang, it was a waste of food.

Looking at the long grain delivery team, Xiang Rongrang smiled, "Second Master, sometimes there are things that cannot be measured in grain money."

"What do you mean?" Li Chengzhan didn't understand what he meant.

While fanning the wind, Long Yutian explained to him with great interest: "Second Master, do you know what is the ratio of men to women in our Lingnan?"

Li Chengzhan shook his head.

Long Yutian raised two fingers: "According to the registration of Wangfei Salt Shop, many refugees fled to Lingnan in the first half of the year. At present, the ratio of men to women in Lingnan is one to two. The balance is lost. This situation will not cause problems in the short term, but in the long run, it will eventually affect the stability of Lingnan."

Most of those who escaped to Lingnan in the disaster year were men who were physically stronger than women. More men than women would lead to social problems.

In this case, the best solution is to increase the number of women.

Li Chengzhan is just lazy, he is not stupid. When Long Yutian said this, he looked at the women and children in the captive team and understood.

He didn't show any emotion on his face, but he sneered in his heart. It would be good if the low-level untouchables gave them something to eat, so why should they care about their offspring?

The great victory of Xiangzhou City was achieved quickly. It took less than three days to loot Xiangzhou City, leaving only ruins to witness the catastrophe that the city has experienced in the past few days.

Bian Yuehong was far away in Liangshan, Annan. It was four days after he received the distress letter from Xiangzhou City. At this time, he didn't know that Xiangzhou had already fallen.

Another day's delay in dispatching troops and generals was another day's delay, which was equivalent to a five-day delay. When they arrived at Xiangzhou City, the day lily was cold.

Of course, they couldn't reach Xiangzhou City this time, because they were ambushed on the way, and the reinforcements suffered huge losses.

Looking at the soldiers and horses who fled back in embarrassment, Bian Yuehong gritted his teeth!
He has been in the army for so many years, he has never lost a city, this time he did not expect to lose a city while fighting in the mainland!
However, it would be of no avail for him to get angry again at this moment, and he finally decided to send troops to reinforce Xiangzhou City.

This time the reinforcements were not ambushed again, and reached Xiangzhou City unimpeded all the way.

In the end, the Xiangzhou City left to them was just a ruin. If it wanted to rebuild it, how much effort would the court have to spend?
Moreover, the most important population for building the city is gone, and Xiangzhou City is almost a dilapidated empty city, doomed to decline.
-
Back in Siling, Xiang Rongrang wrote a good report and rushed to Fucheng.

After sending the messenger away, Long Yutian waved his fan and asked with a smile, "What is your plan now, Sir Xiang? Where are we going to attack next?"

As soon as Xiang Rongrang heard this, he knew that Long Yutian should have an idea in his heart, so he humbly asked for advice: "What's your idea, sir? Why don't you tell us for your reference?"

Long Yutian smiled and nodded, expressing his thoughts.

"Xiangzhou, Liangshan, and Bianyuan are three cities in different geographical locations, forming an inverted triangle. Liangshan is at the point in the middle of the triangle, and Bianyuan is the farthest from Xiangzhou.

This time, Bian Yuan was the last to receive the news. Whether they sent reinforcements or not is unknown for the time being. We will know when there is no news from Ye Ye.However, it does not matter whether to aid or not. "

As he spoke, he glanced at the crowd and stroked his beard, "The important thing is that Liangshan's reinforcements have gone to Xiangzhou City. If we attack Bianyuan again at this time, then the Liangzhou soldiers and horses in the middle will go to Xiangzhou City." , It is a bit difficult to go back to aid Bianyuan, and when they return to Liangshan from Xiangzhou, and then from Liangshan to Bianyuan, it is possible that we have captured Bianyuan City."

Search Bianyuan City again, and even if the exhausted reinforcements finally reach Bianyuan, he believes that all that is left is a dilapidated empty city for them.

If you search for the supplies and population of the two enemy cities, the soldiers and horses of the palace can stay at the border longer, but the enemy has to worry about food and grass. This time the border siege was a victory.

It is basically impossible for Annan to restore the situation of the war.

King Qian was overjoyed after receiving the good news!
This was his first victory since coming to Lingnan, so he decided to celebrate it.

When Xia Jing received the news that there was going to be a banquet in the mansion, Zeng Yan had already posted the posts of each family.

Hongmei reminded: "Princess, the banquet will be held in three days. This is the first time the mansion holds a banquet to entertain all parties in Lingnan. As the old matriarch in the palace, it would be a great fun if you don't participate. So for the palace And your face, don't run out these few days."

Xia Jing was just a little surprised at the moment when she heard the news, now lying on the soft couch, she said nonchalantly, "Got it, I'm not very old, but it's my mother's heart that I fucked."

Hongmei was helpless: "I have nothing to do with this slave girl. It would be great if Nanny Cui was here, and she would worry about these things. Then we little maids would be much more relaxed."

Speaking of this Nanny Cui, she was hired by the Xia family when the princess was going to marry into the palace.

The main reason is that the wives of wealthy families have a few capable servants under their command, and Xia Jing is married to a prince and becomes a concubine, so the Xia family naturally attaches great importance to it.

It just didn't occur to her that Xia Jing choked to death this time. In order not to accompany Xia Jing to go to hell, Cui Nanny deliberately asked the palace to give her a body deed, and promised to let her return to the countryside to retire.

"Speaking of this Nanny Cui, how did she leave the palace at that time, or who did she leave? Who allowed her to leave the mansion for the elderly?" Something a little curious.

Hongmei hesitated after hearing this, and asked: "Should I ask my servants to find out about this matter?"

Xia Jing nodded, "We can investigate this matter."

Why did Yuan body choke to death after having a good breakfast?
Perhaps it was because of lack of itching in her brain that she choked to death, Xia Jing had no memory of that incident, so she didn't know what the original owner had experienced at that time?
This Nanny Cui was Yuanshen's personal nurse at that time, and she must have been by her side when Yuanshen was choked, since she failed to serve her master well and caused him to be choked to death, and she, a dissatisfied servant, wanted to go out of the house to provide for the elderly. It's just a fantasy.
